It’s very easy to read what you want to read. I recall in my years in the rag trade we would price up the mannequins in the window. Suit £ xxx, shirt £ xx, tie £ xx, and you could guarantee that at least one punter would pop in and say they’d like to try the suit on – then pass out when they discovered it wasn’t the price of the shirt.
This interview with Harry is from today’s Standard, and his quotes towards the end of the conversation suggest he has no intentions of playing abroad. He can’t take on Alan Shearer or anyone else if he’s in sunny Spain or Ligue 1. So this might be worth factoring in, for those seeking to construct fabulous swap deals or whatnot.
This is going to be a long summer when it eventually arrives, and the Harry Kane transfer will dominate the headlines. No matter what ‘stance’ Mr. Levy might adopt, the market will decide the price and nobody else. My money is firmly on Manchester City.
