Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane’s future has been a topic of discussion for months now.
The player has a contract with the London club until the summer of 2024 and there have been rumours that the Premier League club are prepared to offer him a contract extension.
Tottenham have certainly improved a lot since the arrival of Antonio Conte and Kane will probably feel that he has a good chance of fulfilling his ambitions at Spurs.
The Italian manager has guided Tottenham back into the Champions League and tying Kane down to a new long-term contract could be a massive boost for the club now.
Reliable journalist Alasdair Gold from Football London has now revealed that Spurs are looking to agree on an extension with the 28-year-old striker and an ‘offer is expected to eventually arrive’. He also added that the player is ‘open to talks’ regarding a renewal.
The England international scored 27 goals across all competitions last season, and he is certainly one of the best players in his position. Tottenham will have to hold on to players of his calibre if they want to bridge the gap with the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool in the coming seasons.
Kane has shown remarkable consistency since establishing himself as a regular first-team player for Tottenham and the Londoners will once again depend on him to end their wait for a trophy next season.
I think the thing that irritates many is this pushing these things forward and overhyping them based on trying to address some imbalance. I don’t think it’s about being angry about women’s football and wanting to keep women in some sexist prison. Perhaps people don’t like being patronised or lectured on things like this as if they need educating because they’re ‘probably’ completely without a clue.
There are so many other socio-economic issues that aren’t even on the agenda, like class, education and social mobility.
But of course, a media tun by globalised, capitalist and consumerist agendas would much rather base all societies ills around gender, race and sexuality. It helps distract the Western populations from the real problems, and what we might do to lessen them. Plus and crucially, there’s billions to be made out of it…
Plus Romero has to be paid for.
👍 Plus Lenglet loan fee 5m
Highly unlikely. That would be less than each of the last 4 years… I expect it to be at least double that, up to quadruple..
The 150 mil investment plus money for reaching the champions league means money is there.
Conte wouldn’t still be here if he was told he could have 40 mil and the rest has to be raised through sales.
Bergwijn and Vickers out so far which is around 30 million so net is around 65 mill(ish) ex add ons. Though total have 4 player that must be out this window.
Though I’d say we are keeping some back for CB to get over the line by end of the window especially with letting Rodon go.
Well that’s true, any slightly constructive transfer business is welcome. But then again our expectations are so low in this regard that we find ourselves relieved at anything coherent taking place…
Not sure that is true anymore, I think people are looking for something to kick/blame ..regardless unless your struggling to choose which $10, 000000 apartment to buy or paying the leccy and feed your kids..
My posts did the same! Levy is stopping common sense being written!
Richarlison £52.20m
Bissouma £26.28m
Spence £13.23m
Net spend we won’t know until the window closes…
Then again, if we finish with a 40M net spend after getting several players to improve our starting 11 / squad early in the window while getting rid of the deadwood, I will see that as a massive improvement on the many years of utter transfer neglect.
Conte finished last season playing about 13 people. We’re way better off now in terms of squad strength.
Gross is fairly irrelevant. By the time we’re done this summer I suspect a total outlay of about 40m net.
Yaya Toure and Defoe have joined the club as youth coaches… Great players, perfect for teaching our young. Good luck to both.
I thought we’d almost hit that 150 mil already.. Richarlison 60 mil, Bissouma 25 mil, and Spence 15/20 mil… Plus Romero 50 odd mil to be announced anytime soon…Add on Lenglet’s loan fee and we go past the 150 mil mark… Who have we sold? We haven’t sold anyone to take us down to 57 mil..
Richarlisons preferred position is left wing. He can also play up top so there’s the cover for Son and Kane.
Lenglet from Barca is an upgrade on Davies at centre back.
We need more out and more in I agree, but we have had a good window so far..
I’m thoroughly looking forward to this season.. People raised eyebrows and doubted Contes signings at Inter, the likes of Ash Young, Victor Moses, Lukaku..
Perisic and Bissouma walk in to our firsts. One or two more of this calibre would do us wonders.
Well it sort of goes without saying with the Tory party, we kind of know that already. The BBC however pretend that sort of thing can be dodged by introducing quotas etc on other things. We are run by an elite, both a right wing and a left wing one. The thing that unites both is generally class…
Lol..
Oh all my post are waiting for approval ..here’s another one ..
He is woke though..
I suggest we start with the higher echelons of the Tory Conservative Party with that old nonsense.
I’ve enjoyed the Womens Euros ….once back in the day Italy had a woman’s league which was pulling a huge number of fans..the authorities found a way to shut it down .
Woman playing football ..whatever next a nine times bankrupt in charge of the biggest weapons Arsenal in the world …put there with Russian help and social media.
Woke…get a grip ..if we were woke Levy wouldn’t exist Ffs .
Our net spend with 10 days to go before the season starts is £57 million. Nearly 43% less than the £100 million signed off supposedly by Levy for new players this window and nearly 62% less than the so-called £150 million pound war chest mooted pre-season ticket sales. Still no cover for Kane or Son. A serious injury to either of those two and our season is f**ked once again. Still dependent on Dier and Davies at the back. Still missing a creative attacking midfielder and still weak in our wing-back positions are far as cover is concerned for four competitions.
I wonder if, in 1900 when women were first allowed to compete in 3 Olympic sports for the first time; or in 1917, after women – who could fulfil a specific criterion – got the vote; or when virtually all men over the age of 21 were allowed to vote in 1918; or when women finally achieved the same voting rights as men in 1928; people were describing the huge amount of attention it was getting in the media in such terms? When I find a story which doesn’t interest me in a newspaper I just turn the page. The thing that didn’t interest me doesn’t stick in my mind and make me hateful; especially one which is such an exciting and positive story for the many women, young and old, who are finding that they too can enjoy the same over the top celebrations that the men’s game has been expressing for quite some time now. ‘Woke’? What does that even mean, beyond an opportunity to sneer at an attempt at some sort of socio-political progress?
Most sports journalism is OTT surely?
Absolutely right. Cannot bear watching adverts anyway but having positive discrimination shoved down my throat is the final insult.
This is most likely.. We will know by the end of this season.
Someone like Romano is reliable. Only reports and releases actual facts and truths as they happen…. Opposed to the likes of Gold who makes things up as he goes along. He’s been getting a lot wrong for many years.
Journos have definitely gone downhill since the rise of the internet, and they’re not getting any better.
You’re in America aren’t you? Perhaps your journos are more reliable. English mainstream media became a joke many moons ago.
I wouldn’t know… Women’s football is as bad as schoolboys under 10s… Not sure how any men watch that.
It’s not just ITV it’s all over commercial tv and especially Sky Sports.The percentage of black people in ads is no way representative of the population of the UK.If this is a woke agenda tied into BLM then it will backfire because people will not see it as reality and will resent it.
Probably 95% of my viewing is via catchup so I just fast forward through the ads.If I am watching a live game I just do something else during halftime.
It’s offensive and patronising to introduce quotas that aren’t even representative of reality. I completely understand the importance and the need need for inclusion, but creating false realities doesn’t help anyone, does it? Let’s just create a lie, and make all the world’s issues disappear.
How about the BBC take a closer look at the amount of people at the organisation that went to the top five universities, and the class dimension in place? Posh women are still as posh as the men that they positively discriminated against and replaced…
The world doesn’t know if it’s on it’s head or it’s arse at the moment…
I have to agree. There’s nothing wrong with women’s football and it’s a decent game in it’s own right, however (at there top level) compared to the men’s game it doesn’t even compare.
What’s so irritating is this elevating of the coverage which far outstrips viewing demand purely based on the idea of ‘equality’. This should surely be about the sporting spectacle that draws viewers to it? There will never be the interest in the women’s game that there is for the men’s purely because its vastly different and less of a spectacle. For the BBC falsely elevate the coverage is not required, it will find it’s own level.
I for one support anything that helps get kids and all ages get off their backsides and their smart phones and start something physically active, regardless of their gender.
What many people find irritating though is this idea that people like the BBC feel the need to ‘compensate’ around this notion that the majority of the population are ‘probably’ sexist, racist and homophobic. It’s as if they don’t trust people to be able to be thinking and ‘right-minded’ about these things off their own back. They will throw up this minuscule minority of idiots who take to social media to say bigoted things to try and cultivate this idea that there is this huge ‘issue’ and problem with bigotry.
Get rid of social media and this negligible minority of idiots would never be seen or heard. When was the last time you heard anyone say something bigoted to somebody in a public place? It never happens and if it ever does it’s usually some nutter or drunk who hardly knows what day it is. Are we basing policy on these unhinged people now are we?
Theres nothing wrong with women’s football as a game but as a sport to watch it will always play second fiddle to the men’s game for obvious reasons, and that has got absolutely nothing to do with sexism.
The BBC need to grow up and get their heads out of their sixth form college debating room mentality, and treat the population as responsible and thinking, rather than as suspected sexists, racists and homophobes… It’s offensive.
I noticed too a chance to push women’s cricket quickly before the PL kick-off.How long before trans sport floods our screens?
Nope I am enjoying it a nice change from having to endure black quotas and ITV ad breaks where 90% of commercials feature black actors where the facts are England is 87% white.
Couldn’t agree more. Totally OTT coverage by the woke BBC and equally politically correct Sky Sports. I can’t imagine why but I watched 5 mins of the game and switched over. The standard of football is pathetic. A pub team on Hackney Marshes could beat them.
On the subject of Kane, he won’t be signing a new contract any time soon. Once bitten, twice shy. As for Alasdair Gold being a reliable journalist, someone must be having a laugh. He’s a complete numptie.
Off piste,am I the only one who hates all this OTT coverage of the woman’s Euros.Pages and pages of articles,way more coverage than any other games played by men and blanket coverage by the PC BBC.This is woke PC sh*t overload.
Absolutely he should wait,Levy is not to be trusted.And get a proper agent not his know-nothing brother.I think it’s because of him that Levy was able yo so easily block his last proposed move
Load of old tosh. Why would Kane what to sign an extension now? We haven’t won anything yet!!
Just wondering, what makes someone a “reliable journalist?” Shouldn’t all journalists be reliable? Isn’t that what journalism is?
