Manchester United has been given some encouragement in their bid to sign Harry Kane in the summer.
The Red Devils have a long-standing interest in the Tottenham striker and this summer might be his last on the books of Spurs.
Kane has been loyal to the Lilywhites despite attracting the attention of Europe’s biggest teams.
His performances for them deserve trophies, but as Spurs struggle in this campaign, it seems that staying in north London will not help him meet his ambitions.
The striker has reached the final of the Carabao Cup but Spurs struggle in the league means they might not finish this campaign inside the top four.
Football Insider reports that Kane is set to leave Spurs at the end of this season and he is interested in a move to Old Trafford.
The Red Devils are big fans of his and they have plans to make their move for him if the opportunity arises.
The report says while Kane hasn’t and probably wouldn’t publicly ask for a move away from Spurs he is interested in leaving them at the end of this season.
Spurs don’t want to sell to a Premier League rival, but the biggest European teams may struggle to pay Daniel Levy’s asking price, which plays to the advantage of United.
That said, only yesterday the Sun reported that Tottenham will not do business with United following their disgraceful behaviour towards Son Heung-min at the weekend.
This really is going to be a saga.
