Harry Kane

[brasil_spur]

I wouldn’t hang your hat on Richy. His finishing is poor. Janssen levels. I would rather play Son through the middle if Kane goes (which I don’t think he will until 2024).

Fucking behave.

He has 54 goals in 152 appearances for Everton and 20 in 44 for Brazil.

He’s not done it at Spurs yet, but to compare to Janssen is just plain ridiculous.

Which is exactly why he HAS to go if he doesn’t sign. This will derail our season come the Winter

Yes, although we can't make him leave. I think it gives Ange a massive headache, though.

Aside from the constant speculation, I'm not sure how you can build a new team around a key player who is leaving at the end of the season.

Do we start preparing for life without him by rotating him with Richarlison? Given the reduced number of matches this season, I can't imagine Kane will be happy to sit out many games. There's also a possibility the whole season becomes a kind of swansong for Harry.

Charlie telling H to build a gaf and spend 6.5 million doing so, but then brokering a move to Bayern is very Charlie isn't it.

I'm sure the house has nothing to do with anything, but I wouldn't be so sure he wouldn't consider Chelsea. Many people here still act like Mourinho, Conte and Pochettino never happened. We sacked our best manager in recent memory and replaced him with Chelsea's greatest and most successful manager of all time. The line dividing the two clubs has become much more porous.

Kane is super ambitious and, according to many here, a homebody. The fact he can move to any club he wishes, the fact Chelsea are in London and play in the Premier League, the fact Pochettino is there, and the fact the line between the two clubs has already been crossed means a move to Chelsea cannot be dismissed out of hand. Fortunately, Chelsea were an even bigger mess than us last season, and Kane will most likely have better offers.

While I don't think Kane is a die-hard Spurs loyalist I do think it's unlikely he's go to Chelsea as it would taint his legacy. Plus Chelsea really aren't as tempting a project as they were in the past

For him to go there I think they'd a) need to be good enough to challenge for all the big honours instantly and b) offer him wages that are absolutely nuts. Like 600-700k p/w.

I think it's unlikely that Chelsea will be in a good enough place on the pitch in a year's time to seriously tempt Kane and if he wants to stay in London he may as well just stay at Spurs.

If he moves within in the PL I think he's much much more likely to go to United, personally.

Exactly we can’t make him leave. He is perfectly free to reject any move.

I sincerely doubt Charlie tells Harry what to do, it's more likely the other way round

He deserves to make the choice.

I've heard people say he's a disgrace if he walks on a free. We stopped him from joining city, and were adamant that he honours his contractual obligations. He is perfectly entitled to do the same. That's not unreasonable.

I don’t think there is going to be any move for HIM now that’s better than what he what options he will have a free agent. There maybe moves that suit us as club, but not him as a player and i’m sure Kane is well aware of this.

Absolutely, i’m just pointing out people saying he ‘has to be sold if he won’t sign’ i’m not sure they get it, he can reject those moves and the club has little power. So it’s not as simple as just sell him if he won’t sign.

Letting players get to one year left on a contract, especially ones that are going to get offers left right and center is a bad idea.

I agree with virtually all of this. It would probably take a massive turnaround by Chelsea for Kane to consider them. But I still think there is that small possibility for the reasons I mentioned. Especially because United are by no means a sure path to titles either.

 

[wadewill]

It is HIS choice, no one can make him go. If people don’t like this situation it’s probably not a good idea to let players get to a year left on a contract. That’s on the chairman not Kane.

Oh not saying it isn’t his choice, if I were him I’d be riding this out and doing what I want next summer

For Ange it’s a rubbish situation. Do you build a team around him for one year? Probably not. It’s not like we are able to just drop him come Jan if he hasn’t signed, which is what we absolutely should be doing

 

[nailsy]

Sign a contact with some kind of clause in it.

I keep seeing people say this but I don't understand how this would benefit Kane in any way. Maybe I've missed something? If he leaves on a free he'll get more money in wages and a signing on fee as the club he joins won't have to pay a transfer fee. He'll also be giving up having complete control of which club he goes to next.
The clause makes no sense either. If Tottenham want to make money out of him they can sell him now. If they're happy that they've had their moneys worth out of him then they must be willing to accept that he might leave on a free. Obviously we might have a great season and he might sign a new contract at the end of it, but that's a risk for the club, not Harry,

I agree you can't write it off completely. It's not hard to imagine Boehly getting the horn for the idea of stealing his biggest rival's star player and offering him a mad contract (and ofc Poch would love the idea).

Just think it's very unlikely because odds are Chelsea won't even have CL football season after next and Kane's sole focus will be trophies. Chelsea's project is basically at the same stage as ours, if not behind it.

Ange isn't building a team around anyone. That's not how his philosophy works.

I don't think he'd go directly there, but I wonder if he's go abroad first and then join them after a year or two, especially if Poch is still there.

That’s all on Levy and the mess he has made of the last few years. The current situation, wasting years of prime Kane with awful mismanagement.

 

[Andertons_Right_Boot]

Not sure the point of this post? What a clickbait headline aswell from the those twats.

Such a non story, there's absolutely ZERO chance Levy sells Kane to Chelsea, not even for £150m, would have to be near £200m i'd guess to sell him to them scumbags

Zero chance Kane would go there either IMO. He wouldn't absolutely destroy his legacy at Spurs , he just wouldn't.

Just a bollocks clickbait story because he's happened to have a nice mansion in one of the nicest players in London (Shocker!)

And these reporters who write these articles seem to forget he is a multimillionaire footballer..... I'm pretty sure he can cope with a little extra fuel money every week

Nailed it. There is no contract or move that suits Kane better than sitting tight for less than a year now.

Quite rightly so IMO

Yeah if he's got any sense he stays put, regardless of what Bayern offer.

Bayern will probably still be in for him in a year's time if he fancies that move, only he'll have about 5 other offers to pick from and a mega signing-on fee to boot. Plus he can chip away at the PL record for an extra year.

I'm actually kinda surprised Kane let his brother be quite so forward with Bayern given, strategically, he's got better options if he stays put for a year, although that could just be Charlie being a people-pleasing amateur who can't help himself when confronted with the big-wigs.
