Spurs fans were stunned when news broke in the last few days that Harry Kane has asked to leave.
Their beloved vice-captain and loyal player has had enough of failure and finally wants to join another club.
Kane has won all kinds of individual honours while playing for Spurs, but the team prizes have continued to elude him.
The England captain’s decision to leave may have come as a surprise to some of the club’s fans, but it seems Spurs have been preparing for the worst for a long time now.
After watching their promising start to the season fall apart in 2021, the club knew that Kane could ask to leave and started making alternative plans to replace him from February.
Mail Online says Spurs thought about the possibility of losing the World Cup top scorer and enquired about Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland.
However, they were put off by his wage demands believed to be in the region of £350,000-a-week.
They have since turned their attention towards Manchester City’s Gabriel Jesus and Manchester United’s Anthony Martial, according to the same report.
Both teams have been linked with a move for Kane and they could use the strikers as bargaining chips to make losing Kane less painful to Spurs while they search for a replacement.
Are you related to Levy?
They seriously contemplated signing a top top young player who would cost an absolute fortune when our esteemed chairman is always looking to use his Nectar points wherever he can?!
have to agree how many times have we read ‘tried to sign world class player, couldn’t do here’s second rate Steve instead’
Ties in with him leaving.
This must be one of the most preposterous articles i have ever read.The idea of enticing Haarland away to a club struggling to qualify for the Ropey league is beyond funny.This is Levy PR at it’s most pathetic.
Yes…..Haaland will leave CL qualifying Dortmund to go to Europa (maybe) league Spurs.
IF he goes to Utd I make it a cash plus Greenwood deal.
I wonder what Haaland’s agent said.
Enquired about Haaland but bought Benteke!
Yeah Levy offered Dortmund 5mill and Winks….
That must av been the most short and pointless phonecall in history.
If Haaland wants 350k a week get it paid!!
What a replacement that would be.
I still maintain though bring in Conte or bring Pochetino back and he’ll stay with guaranteed investment. We are a defence shy of CL qualification and cups in my opinion.
Kane will play into his mid 30’s no problem so he has still got 7 years minimum to win something. But I wouldn’t blame him for leaving.
Indeed. Haaland ha ha ha
Yes we can expect haaland in the summer along with Messi and a whole new back line.
