Exclusive: Transfer expert updates Man United’s pursuit of Harry Kane of Tottenham
With the transfer window already open, one of the biggest deals is Man United enticing Tottenham Hotspur to sell talisman Harry Kane.
It seems clear that the England captain and all-time Premier League goalscorer wants to continue as one of his stated career targets is to top Alan Shearer’s Premier League goalscoring record, which certainly gives the Red Devils an advantage over Premier League teams. continent.
The problem remains that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has never really shown any intention of selling the striker.Considering Kane only has a year left on his contract and could leave completely for nothing in 12 months, Levy is indeed playing a very dangerous game.
Transfer expert and trusted journalist Fabrizio Romano has known this story from the start and he’s covered the latest developments in his exclusive CaughtOffside Substack.
“It is important to clarify the situation surrounding Harry Kane.” Never say never in the transfer market but remain calm for now as Manchester United are less than three months away from a deal they don’t think is possible, at least that’s their position at the moment” he wrote.Kane is seen as a perfect striker for Erik ten Hag and his style of football, but negotiating with Tottenham Hotspur has never been easy.
So now, after internal meetings, they think this is a very difficult target and are willing to move on to other targets, including Rasmus Hojlund.
“The main reason why the deal with Kane is so difficult is Tottenham: they don’t want to negotiate with Manchester United, they don’t want to sell.
Even if Spurs opened their doors to Manchester United, this deal would probably be too expensive. “United love the player but they know there’s no point in spending two or three months on such a difficult and expensive deal.”
I also can’t imagine other Premier League clubs would have much luck with Kane, but for overseas clubs that might be a different story.While no one knows how Kane feels about the situation at the time of this writing, it’s safe to assume Levy will if he denies his striker another dream move – having done so there is.
a few years, when it looked likely that a move to Man City would simply leave. the club after a year.Any idea Spurs would sign him to a new contract and keep him at White Hart Lane for the rest of his career is certainly fanciful on the part of officials.
It also raises the question of how Tottenham can justify their business model given that they could potentially refuse a rejection of around £100million at this stage.
