Yet most people in here are all to happy to spend 100 million on him
Harry Kane | Bayern Munich player
- Thread starter LawCharltonBest
- Start date
4 years at United then Saudi for the money
I'm not sure that experienced striker actually exists/is available in the market this summer though. I'm increasingly feeling like if Kane isn't do-able, we're better off signing someone young (Hojland, Ramos, etc), rotating with Rashford though the middle, and seeing how things look in 12 months when Kane is out of contract, Toney's ban is up, and we're not so financially limited.
Felix Diaz & Mario Cortegana who are reliable sources for Madrid talking says they will get it done,seen it so many times in the past with their transfers. Ah well looks like another top striker option off the table

Madrid get a player when they want them
One more year at spurs, then saudi for 100 mill a year.
Then the don’t need Kane cause they have Mbappe at #9
They will get him when the time is right too
But I though they get a player when they want him. They didn’t want him all of 21/22? Sad

Only way this doesn't happen is Kane says he doesn't want to move abroad. I just can't see him saying that when it's Madrid
80m euros. Are they drunk? They may get Richarlison for that but not Kane
Yeah they will pay more than that
Tbh I'm one of those. Not my money anyway and I know it sounds crazy but with Kane imo we might have a chance at the title next year. That's how much I believe in ETH.
But with the takeover going on surely we don't have the money for that. I'd doubt if we could buy anyone at all until it's over.
Yeah certainly looks that way
I don't see it personally unless we also upgrade in other areas, but considering all the latest reports we don't seem to have a whole lot of disposable income and so getting Kane and improving other areas might be too big of a challenge
Madrid will get him at a great value price if it happens. They hold all the cards in this situation. Levy will either outright refuse to sell to United or set a price tag that isn't realistic and hopefully we refuse to pay.
Levy has to sell to Madrid for two reasons:
Of the 4 parties seemingly involved here (Madrid, United, Levy, Kane), Madrid is in the best position by far.
Levy has to sell to Madrid for two reasons:
- the risk of letting him go to a PL foe and watching him do all the things he couldn't do at Spurs
- avoid missing out on 80-100m if he goes on a free next summer.

Of course we'd have a bigger chance if we could also upgrade the other areas. But if ETH could make us finish third with Martial and WW in his first season here after all the mess the season before imo he definitely could win us the title with Kane. Of course the chance is quite small but who would have thought Arsenal would challenge a bit for the title this year or Leicester could ever win the title.
If we had Kane this season we would have definitely challenged for Title, if next season is similar to this then yes, we will challenge for Title with Kane.
However, next season I feel Chelsea and Liverpool will come back stronger so without a top CF like Kane , even Top4 would be a problem for us.
Yeah annoyingly Levy will sell him there
The problem is that is a sound thought process if all the other teams stay stagnant too but they won't, they'll all sign multiple good players
Yeah I feel the same too but not this season we had a terrible start then the mess with Ronaldo.
Imo we had so many matches the margin between 3-1-0 points was pretty close. A proven top scorer like Kane would help us to remove this margin and win those matches. It's of course not the same but we could use the signing of RVP as an example here I think. If we sign Kane, have a good start next season anything is possible imo.

For Liverpool and Chelsea no I don't think they'd come back next season. Liverpool imo are still a long way and some very very big money away from being back to what they were couple seasons ago. Chelsea if they don't change owner, which is very unlikely, will still be a big mess. Spurs are just Spurs.
Next season unfortunately imo City will win it again. Arsenal might have a chance if they buy the right players this summer and could keep their best ones.
Anyway we won't have no 100m until the takeover is over. And by then it'd be already too late imo.

FDJ 2.0 I'm afraid...
Hopefully Madrid get it done early so ETH isn't left pining after him the entire window until we have to move on with 3 days left and pay 80m instead of 40 for Hojlund or someone
If we want him I don't get why we don't just make a single bid at whatever we are prepared to pay (obviously would need to be significantly more than Madrid will pay) and see what happens. If Spurs are going to lose him anyway then surely an extra 20 or 30 million for the new manager to spend would be preferable? I know Levy is a bit twisted when it comes to us, but he's a moneyman at the end of the day innit?
You should support real with that kind of opinion. There’s a good chance Kane wants to break the pl goals record and wouldn’t want to uproute his young family.
The thing is if we offer Spurs 100m and let's say Levy accepts it then the takeover doesn't happen and we end up with the Glazers staying. Would the Glazers willing to spend 100m on Kane by then?
Or if the takeover does happen would the new owner happy with that or would they support ETH or they have some plan else in mind?
Then come the financial stuffs like the value of the assets, the value of the club etc. might have to be negotiated again. It might be really complicated and there's so much uncertainty. There's a reason why all transfers sell or buy have to be put on hold while a takeover is on I think. Let's hope it'd be over soon so ETH could kick start his summer plan.
He can still break the record in a few years,also if there is an issue about uprouting family then why hasn't it come to light since they declared interest
Well yeah, obviously I mean assuming we are in a position to actually put in a bid! Nothing would surprise me with this club, but things will turn very nasty very quickly if it soon becomes clear that we're not in a position to even sign any players.
We can sign players but not at speed Erik wants
There you go it's Felix Diaz again,these noises just keep getting louder by day. We are definitely out of this race now.
I don't get what speed has to do with it really. Either we have a budget, and it's fine to spend regardless of the takeover - in which case why wait? Or we're not able to spend until the takeover completes - in which case I would imagine that Erik is tearing his nonexistent hair out cos it might not even happen.
You do realise that the media is very different in Spain. They are effectively extensions of the clubs themselves plugging their interests. All it means is they are interested in him, nothing less and nothing more
He scored 36 premier league goals this year, so continuing at the same rate he would need another 6.5 seasons. I think he will be in Madrid before that though.
Yeah definitely
My guess is that we have a pre-takeover budget of £100-150m plus any sale proceeds. If the takeover goes ahead, the budget may be bigger, so the question for ETH is does he assume the former or the latter when selecting his targets. That would explain the Kane situation, that he will spend the pre-takeover budget, and if he gets additional revenue at the end of the window, then he will swoop for Kane (if he hasn't gone to Madrid). I actually think that by the end of the window, Levy will decide to sell, as he doesn't want to miss out on a big pay cheque.
If that was the case I still think we could go for Kane now. We've got so many players to sell - and the likes of Maguire, Henderson, Martial, McTominay, Fred etc could actually bring in a decent amount of money to use for midfield and goalie. The longer the window goes on the more that selling clubs will know we are desperate, and the harder it will be to sign someone. I mean, we literally cannot go into next season with Martial as our only centre -forward - that is more pressing even than midfield or goalkeeper. We could even hang on to Henderson for a year if there wasn't funds for a keeper.
