How does moving to the biggest club in the world not work out for Kane?
He'll finally be able to win titles along with all the accolades being the main man at Madrid would bring..
Get Hojlund and make him our own Kane. I trust ETH to help him stepping up fast.
Yeah. You misread my tone. It was calm as it goes.
Not playing for Tottenham will help significantly with that.
Well this all sounds very annoying. Not much we can do here.
This relieves United from the headache of dealing with Levy all summer.
Kane or not, we need make up our mind and start making moves before US tour.
I think personality is a huge thing and someone that stays at spurs until it’s almost too late could potentially not be the guy for us. His record there and with England is no metric of doing it with us. Infact most pundits are saying they can see him staying which is insane and just doesn’t lend itself to the ambition and drive needed at United.
We believing ‘madrid zone’? Really?
Kane isnt leaving England
Kane isnt leaving England
I always thought Kane wanted to stay in the prem. it’s annoying because we’ll get charged a lot more then Madrid will just because he’s in the same league. Sometimes it’s bad for English players that go abroad unless you’re young. He’s old so he’ll have to adapt to a new league quickly as they’ll be expecting 30+ goals from him.
It's not Madrid zone, it's literally every reliable Real linked journalist in the business going big on this today
UK source jumping in now
Be interesting to see who we go for instead if he does indeed go there.
well of course they’re going to say that, when Benzema just announced he’s leaving. Madrid may well want Kane, but that doesn’t mean much if Kane himself wants to stay in England.
Osimhen i guess.
He will be the first player who prefers Manchester than Madrid.
Yeah, it was obvious when I heard the Benzema news. It's a shame because Kane would be excellent for us if we had a realistic way of getting him.
Just cant imagine we'd pay the required money sadly.
Finishing 8 points above 5th isn't scraping
If Real Madrid draw or lose today and Atletico wins Real would finish in the same place we finished this year. Real Madrid could finish between 11-14 points off 1st. We finished 14. We both won league cup. Real don't feel that much more ready made than us if we are going off this season. We also did it with no CF (6 goals in all comps). Madrid at least had one that scored 30 goals
Also over our last two matches against Citeh the aggregate was 3-3. Real Madrid's 2 legs against Citeh in the CL semi it was 5-1 Citeh
In recent seasons we’ve seen Ronaldo, Zalatan, Benzema and Lewandowski scoring 17-18 league goals or more in mid or late thirties at highest level. If Kane has any sense he’d be looking at that and thinking he can still get that record after 4 years at Madrid.
He's not enough though. We need an experience prolific striker as well.
I'm not saying he can't do it, I'm saying it wouldn't be easy, it would in fact be very hard and it's much more likely than not that he would fail. So, if it is important to him, he would be foolish to assume he we will surely be one of the very few whose bodies prove capable of it.
I think an issue could be that while Kane prefers England, his desire might not be as strong as Levy's is to avoid selling within the PL. Kane would probably not take so much convincing by a club of Real Madrid's dimensions.
Whereas I think we'd have to do (or pay) a heck of a lot to persuade Levy, something people continually underestimate when they talk about Levy cash grabbing and being a businessman so therefore he'll panic because Harry's got a year left. Not a chance.
I think if this ever got to a free transfer we'd have had a great chance, but the transfer looks very difficult. Which in all honesty I don't think is such a bad thing for us. I hope it might focus our mind early in the window for alternatives and getting on with strengthening the wider squad, something that will be frustrated by a summer long Kane negotiation.

Simon Jordan to the rescue
We payed 100 mil for a winger who is not even a game changer.
Paying 130 mil for a main man and manager's no1 priority isn't impossible as it seems. Especially if we get an new owner. New owner will want to put his mark in first transfer window.
Voice of reason here.
By the way, I missed the point when people started thinking, that Kane had great 22/23 season. What exactly did he do in CL? What did he do at World Cup? Or virtually anywhere outside of random league games?
From my POV there's actually a very good chance he flops in Spain/United. I mean, obviously he will score against average league opponent, but I think the expectations at fecking Real Madrid are a bit higher?
Because he wants the record. He’s talked about getting the record. He has said he’d be disappointed in himself if he doesn’t get the record.
It’s all there. It’s not as if he has suddenly changed his mind based on a report that Madrid wants him. If we’re believing reports then he’s already turned down Bayern and PSG because he wants to stay in England.
Until there’s a brief from his camp that he’s changed his mind then I can’t see the point of diminishing his desire for a record that he’s repeatedly stated is important to him
He'd be crazy to turn down Real for any of these reasons.
Someone like Shearer's legacy goes far beyond than the scoring record. Kane has a chance of doing that if he moves too.
Not to mention he'll still be welcomed with open arms back to the league in a couple of years if he chooses to return and take a hack at it.

Think Real Madrid will settle for Havertz and then go for Kane next season or in the winter transfer window. Hard to see Kane leaving London with his kids and when he is on the verge of breaking Sherera record.
If Real Madrid are interested then at least this should move things along quicker. They aren't going to be hanging around all summer, it either gets done relatively soon or they move on.
For me, he's miles clear of any other option for us but the worst thing we can do is let it drag on and end up starting the season still without a CF.

Havertz isn't a starting quality no.9
Well, he stayed at Spurs regardless of how shite they've become. They let him statpad his goals this season though. So if that's not caring about personal achievement, I don't know what is.
By most accounts he pushed for a move to Man City a few summers ago and went on a mini-strike that he was slated for in the English press for the first time in his career.
It's Spurs who flat out refused to sell even in the face of massive money.
Placeholder till they get someone like Kane. I thought real Madrid was looking for two strikers this summer. I may be wrong.
That's true. But he'd be stupid not to, he could have scored more goals and win trophies at the same time with that City side. But in the end Spurs seem to compensate not letting him get his move by helping him score goals because they have nothing else they can achieve. Kane wants his record.
Hopefully he goes to Madrid as I don't want him here. I think he'll be a bit silly to not jump at the chance to go there where its almost a guarantee he'll win trophies.
The PL record is great but if Haaland stays for a long enough spell he shatters that record and Kane may regret not going there.
