Manchester United are reportedly planning an audacious move for Tottenham star and England captain Harry Kane at the end of the season.
Kane, 29, has put together a spectacular goalscoring resume during his time at Spurs. He is one goal away from tying Jimmy Greaves as the club’s all-time leading scorer, while he has already tied Wayne Rooney for the most goals in an England shirt, and is third all-time for Premier League goals.
This season has been more of the same, as Kane has started all 20 of Antonio Conte’s side’s league fixtures and hit 15 goals, trailing only Manchester City’s Erling Haaland (22) in the race for the golden boot.
Tottenham have no interest in parting ways with their frontman, but his contract situation could force their hand.
TOP STORY – KANE INTERESTED IN A MOVE TO OLD TRAFFORD
According to the Daily Mail, United boss Erik ten Hag has put Kane at the top of his recruitment plans at the conclusion of the season, when the 29-year-old will have only 12 months remaining on his contract.
Crucially, the report states Kane “is open to joining United”, providing further indication that he is unlikely to sign an extension to remain at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Spurs will demand a fee of at least £85million, while Bild adds both Bayern Munich and Real Madrid remain interested.
