"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?"
"Tylel Tati can play in different positions 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. The interest isn't limited to the Premier League."
"Barcelona view Tati as a long-horizon investment to modernise their defensive line, while RB Leipzig and Bayer Leverkusen, two of Germany's best at fast-tracking high-ceiling prospects, are also tracking him closely. Given the breadth of interest across England, Spain and Germany, industry chatter suggests the timeline is unlikely to be immediate. If his current progress continues, expect Tati to headline the market in 2026, moving not just as a pro"

Nantes are prioritising measured development and varied minutes before entertaining offers. Continued progress could see Tati become a headline transfer target in 2026.
