Graeme Souness has warned Harry Kane that it is now or never if he is serious about leaving Tottenham.
The striker will go down as one of the best in the game’s history, but he also risks having a career that lacks trophies.
He has continued to attract the attention of top European teams as he keeps getting better at scoring and providing goals.
Spurs want to keep him and that is one reason why they made Jose Mourinho their manager, tasking the Special One with helping them to win trophies.
They have reached the final of the Carabao Cup this season, but they have been eliminated from the Europa League.
The Lilywhites are also facing an uphill task in achieving a top-four finish and Kane is a player that deserves to play in the Champions League always.
At 27, Kane is at the peak of his career and Souness reckons that if he doesn’t leave this summer, then he will miss out on a move to a big team.
He said on Sky Sports as quoted by Mail Sport: ‘The two prizes that are out there are (Erling) Haaland and Kane. Haaland is still a question mark but it gets smaller each week.
‘With Harry there is no question mark, we know what we’re getting. Everything about him about him is a pleasure to watch from trying to get the ball back to delivering cute and clever passes, to getting shots off when you don’t think he’s getting shots off, to being so accurate when he does shoot.
‘I think with Harry it’s this year or never for him. If he’s thinking about going, and if he decides to extend his contract he won’t be going getting a big move after that.’
Indeed. But Levy won’t release him to a ‘rival’ club.
I put ‘rival’ in inverted commas for obvious reasons.
Sadly very true. City probably could meet Levy’s valuation but whether they would is another matter. Harry would be almost guaranteed four or five Premier League winners’ medals with City.
He has to go. It would be a travesty to waste his talent here, and I’m as sad as any about that stark reality. The rebuild that is now required to fix this mess will see him past his marketable window, a window that is closing more and more tight every season.
But we all know how this is going to pan out. Levy’s valuation won’t be met because it can’t be met, and Joe Lewis will sit on his yacht while the career of one of the best players of a generation will be chucked into skip of Enic.
Not forgetting the most relevant player in Gareth Bale due to the transfer received that was utterly wasted on duds.

Surely nobody can blame him for leaving the club?, following an all too familiar pattern of Carrick,Sherringham,Berbatov Modric and Walker exiting the club,crucial to the success of the team selling irreplaceable Kane is probably the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning!!
