Harry Kane's future at Spurs is still uncertain as he has just one year left on his contract. The speculation surrounding the 29-year old's transfer has been dominating the headlines over the past few weeks, with a move to Bayern Munich on the cards.
Ange Postecoglou, the new manager of Tottenham, gave his first press conference since joining the club and revealed he will attempt to convince Kane to stay in North London. He insisted that he isn't losing sleep over the transfer speculation and believes it won't affect him.
Postecoglou said, "I always believe that you’re much better trying to understand what a situation is through your own eyes. In my head right now, Harry’s on holiday, he’s on a sunbed and playing with his family and having a great time. That’s the picture I’ve got."
He went on to say that the transfer talk won't affect him and that he will have to wait until Kane returns to the club to find out the truth. The Aussie manager added, "I'm not going to lose time or sleep on conjecture because then you’re jumping at shadows – how much of it is true, how much of it is not true? Nothing’s landed on my desk at this moment from anybody at the club to say there’s a decision to be made there."
Kane is Tottenham and England's all-time record goalscorer and was easily his side’s best player last season, scoring 30 goals. Postecoglou is keen to work with him and revitalise the club's fortunes, but suggested that he could be forced to sell the Three Lions captain should the transfer talk begin to affect his and his teammates attitudes in the dressing room.
He concluded by saying, "It won’t affect me. I guess it’s how we react as a football club that’s going to be important and that will get tested, for sure." It looks like the next few months will be crucial to determine Kane's future at Spurs.
