Tottenham striker Harry Kane has no intention of selling their captain despite Manchester United looking to sign an elite forward. The Old Trafford team has been interested in Spurs’ all-time leading scorer for a long time as he enters the final year of his contract in June. United has researched and analyzed more youthful, exciting prospects, such as Napoli’s Victor Osimhen, with the impression that Kane prefers to stay at Tottenham if they show desire going forward. Chairman Daniel Levy is scheduled to initiate formal negotiations with the England captain on new terms, but even if there is no progress towards a new agreement, he will continue to prevent potential bidders as he has in the past.
As a result, if he leaves Tottenham, Kane wants to stay in the Premier League and has acknowledged that beating Alan Shearer’s record of 260 Premier League goals is “always there in the back of my mind.” In England, his options are significantly constrained because Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez are now available at former suitors Manchester City. United sees him as a surefire source of goals but does not want to fight Levy in another battle to the death while still keeping the long-term future of the team in mind.
The age distribution of the other forwards they have attentively watched, including Osimhen, Goncalo Ramos, Mohammed Kudus, and Benjamin Sesko, reveals this. Bayern Munich has previously expressed interest in Kane, so if Spurs are unable to persuade him to stay longer, they would rather that he pursue his career elsewhere. The player’s choice could also be influenced by what takes place in the dugout. Kane acolytes are two among the candidates to succeed Antonio Conte if he leaves, although that outcome is unknown. The attacker’s former Tottenham manager, Mauricio Pochettino, helped mold him into the accomplished star he is today, and the two remain close. In 2021, Thomas Tuchel made an attempt to bring Kane to Chelsea.
“The future of Kane and Tottenham is at stake at this time. This summer, when his contract will have one year left, Daniel Levy will have to make a choice because there is no indication that a deal has been reached. Pay up now or forfeit the England captain for nothing in 2024,” Paul Gilmour said.
