Harry Kane is one of the most sought-after strikers in world football, and his future has been the subject of much speculation in recent months. The Tottenham Hotspur star has been linked with a move to Manchester United, but it seems that the Red Devils have ended their interest in signing him this summer. However, Kane is said to be hopeful that United will resurrect their interest and launch a bid for him despite Tottenham’s hard stance.
Kane’s desire to leave Spurs is well-documented, and he is believed to be keen for a fresh challenge. He has been linked with a move to Real Madrid, who are seeking a replacement for Karim Benzema following his move to Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad. However, Kylian Mbappe’s availability could change those plans.
United were thought to be the front-runners for Kane’s signature, with Erik ten Hag reportedly ‘obsessed’ with bringing him to Old Trafford and Luke Shaw doing his best to convince him to join the club in the latest England camp. However, United are ready to look elsewhere having accepted that the Three Lions captain will be too expensive and out of their reach.
Spurs want £100m for Kane, but United are not willing to pay that much considering he will soon turn 30 and his contract is due to expire next summer. A price closer to £80m would tempt United, though, with Ten Hag’s side in desperate need of a new striker.
Daniel Levy is determined to keep Kane in north London, with hope he will still sign a new deal in the coming 12 months, and the Tottenham chairman does not want to sell him to a direct rival. Real Madrid are also interested in signing the striker, but it remains to be seen whether they will make a move for him.
Kane has scored 280 goals and provided 64 assists across 435 games for Tottenham, making him one of the most prolific strikers in the Premier League. He is the second-highest Premier League goalscorer of all time with 213, as he looks to overtake Alan Shearer’s record total of 260.
In conclusion, while Manchester United may have ended their interest in signing Harry Kane this summer, the Tottenham Hotspur star is said to be hopeful that the Red Devils will resurrect their interest and launch a bid for him. Kane is one of the most sought-after strikers in world football, and his future is the subject of much speculation. Real Madrid are also interested in signing him, but it remains to be seen whether they will make a move for him. Tottenham are determined to keep hold of their star striker, but it remains to be seen whether they will be able to fend off interest from some of Europe’s biggest clubs.
