Baldy can be smart and spend the 100m plus in advance

Why are so many people obsessed with Levy having no hair, and use it as some sort of stick to beat him with?

He may well be a ****. Many of us may well have a growing dislike for him because of how he's done certain things within the club. So why not just elaborate on those points?

Baldy this, baldy that. Why? He's not Sampson. Being bald isn't relevant to anything, is it?

Hopefully the fans will spend most of the time chanting for Levy to fuck off too.

I'm hoping most of the chants will be telling Levy he's a ****.

My biggest worry with this is that even if we did cash in on Kane - it's going to be really tough to re-invest the money at the moment. When we sold Carrick, Berbatov, Bale, even Kyle Walker, there was a narrative that could be spun that the club was still on the up and that whilst a good player was leaving, we were going on the right direction.

As it is now - we are noticeably worse than we were a few years ago, we have very few upcoming star players that people will be excited to play alongside, we're not known for paying big wages and we don't even have a manager. People are saying "we should cash in and go get Grealish and Daka" - why would players like that want to join Tottenham right now? Even if nobody else comes in for them, what is it about us at the moment that would make them move here rather than wait it out at their respective clubs for another couple of years?

We're replacing Gascogine and Lineker with Gordon Durie and Andy Gray

Fuck off mate, I’ll call him baldy while pleading for Jeff Bezos to buy the club.

We not even a month after the shambles of the ESL and already the media organisations that were highlighting the shambolic state of the game (high transfers fees, wages, agent fees etc) are already playing the transfer market game. It’s all we are going to hear till Aug 31. They will try and sell players like Kane, Grealish, Sancho etc etc and revel in being a cog in the wheel of the game.

I don’t doubt that Kane is questioning his future, but this entirely predictable. It’s going to media overdrive. They been trying to sell Kane for years. Going to hear the same bollocks from them, from fans about player replacement, net spend, wages etc etc, football banter on social media will reach new hyperbolic heights. Seriously fuck the modern game.

When you think about the only two realistic clubs he will go to are Man City or Man utd.

chelsea - we don’t do business with them and the only way we would if the offer was just ridiculous say £200 million cash. Which obviously isn’t going to happen
Barcelona & Juventus are both skint
Real Madrid aren’t flushed with cash at moment either
PSG possible I guess but lot depends on what happens with Mbappe and Neymar and it’s hard to see either of them leaving this summer unless to Man City.
Man Utd- possible if the Glazers try and appease the fans but given they are after Sancho hard to think they would spend £80 million plus on him and another £150 million + on Kane this summer. My gut feeling is he will go there next summer for £80/£90 million.
Just leaves Man City this summer and I think they might go for someone like Ings this summer who will be £30 million then get Haarland next season when his release clause is active.

I feel like I am saying this almost weekly. But this summer is by far the biggest I can remember at our club (maybe any club) for the chairman.

New manager
Star player wants to move on
Need to move on a number of other players
Need to improve squad with no money
Massive disconnection with fan base
Financial implications of COVID and uncertainty of when it will end

This is an enormous task, I just hope Levy doesn't gamble by appointing the wrong manager in the hope they can win something with our current squad. We have to rebuild, I worry about Levy being willing to do it, I know people have mentioned we can spend the Kane money now and sell him next season if it doesn't work out. That seems like a very big gamble for someone as cautious as Levy.

Makes it clear it’s his opinion but even so, like the beeb... 100% more credible than anything the illiterate bums at sky come out with.

I've got to agree - any site suggesting we would sell to Chelsea is beyond credible...who was the last player we sold to that lot directly (Micky Hazzard?)? Kane and Levy know Spurs just don't go there. Having spent 35+ years on the Paxton and seen great names like Hoddle, Allen, Jurgen, Bale all leave, this doesn't feel the same - I think he'll stay. A lot depends on who comes in as manager though.

I dont know what their finances are like but I actually thought Bayern Munich were a good shout.

Talk of Lewandowski being ready to leave this summer so they'd have a hole to fill and Kane would be a good fit there. I'd be happy with him going to Germany if Bayern have the money to sign him.

If hypothetically Kane wanted to make a move, who are the main clubs who would target him? Let's game this out...

Man City: Aguero is leaving and they might feel the need to replace him, but is Kane someone who fits into their tiki-taka style of play when they often play without a stereotypical number 9? Spurs won't be willing to sell for anything that doesn't come close to a world record fee, and for all the money that City have their MO has been to pay up to 60M for quality (but not galactico) players.

Man Utd: probably the best fit of a team for Kane and a massive club brand around the world that would further lift Kane's image. But they arguably have decent attacking talent in the team with Rashford, Greenwood, Fernandes and have just signed up Cavani for another season. Going to Utd right now does not guarantee big silverware - they are still a distance away from winning the league - and does Kane really want to play under Ole?

Chelsea: they might have the money and may be crying out for a proper CF with the likes of Werner, Abraham and Giroud not top level strikers. But I just can't see Kane wanting to go to a London rival, and I just can't see Spurs selling any player to them either.

So looking abroad...

Barca and Real may want him but can't afford to buy him.

PSG could afford him, but does Kane want to play in the French league and what's his relationship like with Poch?

Bayern - they have Lewandoski and not sure Kane fits the mould of the younger stars they like to bring in.

I can't see him wanting to go to Italy, let alone the clubs being able to afford the fee.

This is 100% opinion-based, but looking at the above options I could only imagine United being a realistic destination, and even then I doubt Levy would sanction a deal at anything other than a world record fee as we're not a charity. I would bet big on Kane still being a Spurs player by the end of the summer window, and the onus is on Spurs to recruit the best new manager and invest in the squad over the summer for us to prove to Kane over the course of the next season that we can challenge again at the top tables.

They're all so desperate to be first to break the news. The irony is that stories of Kane leaving Spurs have been around since he first got noticed years ago. You'd think if they had any sense what they'd want is a competitive league full of tight, exciting matches, but in reality all they want is a couple of clubs hoarding all of the talent and buying any trophies on offer.

It’s only opinion. He can’t know for sure if City or United intend to pony up a serious offer.

Which is why he specifically began his tweet by pointing out that it was only his opinion and went on to say that you can never say never!

I don't dispute what you say but if he goes to utd say he first of all improves them and is more likely to win the stuff he wants.
Let's be honest at Spurs he isn't going to win anything other than personal accolades he has mentioned this now a few times what he wants, it's about time this club listened got its finger out and for once delivered on the pitch.

Yeah, of course. Clubs love to play finals with injured players which hugely reduce their chances of winning.

They might look at the situation and think a nearly fit Kane is a better option than somebody else. Don't tell me you don't believe clubs over the years haven't played unfit players before?

You can’t know this, all you can be confident of, based on all their previous actions, is that Kane goes the entire fee will be put in the playing squad, every last penny. Whether or not it’s spent wisely who knows. Of the £90m Bale money that was spent, Capoue Soldado Chiriches and Paulinho where huge failures, Lamela an opinion splitter, Chadli a decent player that we made money on and Eriksen a player who across his time with us easily gave us £90m worth of quality, output and enjoyment.

Can’t judge whether the money is spent week or not until such time that it is spent.

we can't know but we can look back at our recruitment policy and previous opportunistic buys and it doesn't look good for a team that wants to win

Not true at all. If Kane is off next summer anyway, then it’s best for the new manager to come in and work with players who will be here. It allows the manager to instill a system that won’t have to be changed in a year because there is no like-for-like replacement for Kane.

This is before considering that Kane’s value will be lower next summer, and that is less money to reinvest - just as other clubs are starting to spend again.

The only real reason to keep Kane would be if you thought it gave you a strong chance at CL - but without reinvestment we have a low chance even with Kane.

His value won't necessarily be lower next summer. Sure, he will be a year older and have one year less on his contract. But, on the flip side and all being well with life returning to normal, clubs will have more to spend. The market will be much more bullish.
