FC Nantes’ prodigy Tylel Tati has attracted interest from the top clubs in European football, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside.
Born in 2008 and already commanding senior minutes, the French-Congolese defender has drawn a crowd of elite scouts.
The youngster has shown maturity and talent rarely seen at 17.
From Ligue 1 to France U18, Tati’s emergence has put half of Europe on alert and sparked an early debate, is he the next cornerstone centre-back to graduate from France’s talent pipeline?
Tati has made six league appearances for the French club this season.
Comfortable on his weaker side, he can slide to left-back when the full-back tucks inside, and he has the composure to operate as a defensive midfielder, breaking up play and progressing possession through tight areas.
Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool, Manchester United, Brighton, Brentford and Aston Villa have all dispatched scouts to monitor him.
