Harry Kane's future has been a hot topic of discussion in the transfer window as his contract with Tottenham Hotspur is set to expire next year. Manchester United have been linked with the England captain as they desperately search for a world-class No.9, but their pursuit of Kane looked to be over until a recent report suggested Spurs' majority owner, Joe Lewis, had instructed Daniel Levy to sell the striker.
This news comes shortly after Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou expressed his concern over Kane's future, and it could be a lifeline for Manchester United, who are currently focusing their attention on Atalanta's Rasmus Hojlund. Despite agreeing personal terms with the player, the two clubs remain far apart on a fee.
Bayern Munich have also emerged as a potential suitor for Kane, with the Bundesliga giants preparing a fourth bid. Tottenham are still hopeful that he will sign a new contract, but if he doesn't, then he must be sold this summer to get a huge fee.
Manchester United's hopes of signing Kane could still be thwarted, however, as they may not be able to afford him. Erik ten Hag was reportedly operating on a £120m budget at the start of the transfer window, and a lot of that was spent on Mason Mount and Andre Onana. To raise more funds for Kane or Hojlund, the club needs to sell their fringe players, with the departure of Alex Telles to Al-Nassr the first of hopefully many outgoings.
