Why do you say that
Anyone else think it's odd spurs are reported as bidding for Barnes, Madison and Reyes when they're averaging 70m net spend. Kane money?
Or negotiating to try and bring Kulasevski price down/find alternatives. I don't think they'll sign both Barnes and Maddison. Reyes depends how interested we are, as even in current straits we're likely more flexible on price compared to Spurs. They could also be making enquiries to line up purchases in the event of Madrid coming in and offering them close to 100m for Kane. They've made it stubbornly clear that Kane won't be sold to PL clubs unless it's the kind of price that makes Fernandez look like Brighton's purchase of Caicedo.
If the latest info about Qatar is true then I wonder if we might change our minds on signing Kane?
What info is that?
Or:
3) he wants to sell, but not to a premier league team.
I think that is his preference, and if that doesn't work out, he'll try one of the above 2
well it's only in the tabloids and Rio's mouth at the moment, but it seems as though they have been given preferred buyer status: https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/man-united-takeover-qatar-ratcliffe-30242566
Kane will not sign for a club outside the PL.
Does he now?
Clearly he doesn’t know our little bald owner. Levy cares only about 1 thing, £, he will have calculated and understood Kane’s value to United. I genuinely believe if you signed Harry you could win the title, so has Levy. If you want him, pay for him.
Ah okay i thought it was something about spending power. I imagine if it’s wrapped up then yeah spending will increase. I doubt the new buyers want us to fall behind another transfer window
100m should get it done. He'd be worth it.
If he’s done that calculation, then he’s doing the wrong maths. The question he should be looking at is the value to Spurs of one season of Kane. For example, if that figure is £50m (and that’s a very generous figure I think), then selling for £100m is a no-brainer.
Or just sign him for free next year because Levy will price him out of a move
He cost us sweet feck all? Are u dense or do we need to spell it out for you? U are equating Levy’s l price to what he is worth to us? Levy is equating it on what he is worth to you…. Kane cost us feck all, if he leaves for nothing he cost us; zip. You do the math.
Then do it, Levy still wins.
Again il repeat what hat I have said, Levy is not Spurs, he is not a Spurs fan, he gives feck all about Spurs, but he is winning, and profit. At that he excels, if you don’t see that your pretty thick.
You really think it's worth losing about £100m to keep him for 1 year?
I can think of a third, retaining Kane may kelp attract other players they want to sign for them
That is one hell of an easy way to look at it. As of now he is an asset who can give you good money if you move him on. Next year he will move for free. Do the maths mate, you stand to lose the asset for nothing.
Levy will sell imo.
Yeah, but they will have had another year of winning nothing and hanging around the Europa League places, so who's the real winner eh?
I don't think you've watched very much of us if you think we're Harry Kane away from a title. He's good but he ain't that bloody good. We're miles off it in our play.
Yes genius Levy wins by losing his best asset for free. Genius I tell you!
Ok, a simple concept I didn’t think I’d need to explain but let’s try an example. I develop a fantastic piece of software I can sell for £100m now. However, I do nothing with it, thinking it’s better to wait, but technology doesn’t develop the way I expected and in 1 years time it’s worth nothing. Have I lost £100m?
Well the money is a sure thing and you can invest them. A player who might be very ready to go could be bad to keep. But it’s not definite anything. I just know that personally I would sell him.
How do you know how hung up Erik is on anyone?
I totally agree man, I was being sarcastic!
There was never a move to City. They tried to hijack our deal with an (at the time) eye-watering £35m bid for a player I believe even Levy was only asking £30m and a bit of change for. Levy accepted, but Betba (understandably) didn't want to go to some mid-table side. It did spur (heh) us to up our bid sufficiently for Levy to accept it though.
Indeed.
Kane has given them his best years and may now not win any major trophies, even if he moves on. The PL record goal scorer will be something he rightly covets. Why not accept he's done a good job and let him go for a reasonable market figure.
You could argue that Levy is, in fact, not the mastermind some make him out to be. He's played hardball for years and they've won nothing. He can't attract big managers anymore (with Conte, who's highly strung at the best of times, the only recent exception) and the better players will swerve the club if there are better offers. They're in a worse position now than they have been for years and without Kane they're mid-table fodder.
Your all thinking I accept Levy’s ways, I don’t he has won with us, he has made a fortune of us and Kane, if Kane leaves on a free he still wins. The club is secure in a way that suits him, again ENIC have only invested about £40m of thier own cash in Tottenham the rest is in loans in the clubs name. Our owners have litterally nothing to loose. £40m in 20 odd years ffs. Your all saying the same thing City fans said last year, IMO Harry will not leave this summer.
Rather use the apparent Mount funds and add in more to try and get Kane.
I'd rather Kane for 100m than Mount for 60m.
Not sure if Levy would sell for 100m to a PL rival.

Do think Levy would sell to PL @ £100m ….though realistically imagine £70 - £80m.
Yeah we can find someone else in that midfield whereas Kane is easily best striker. Unfortunately though we have ended interest so that idea is academic now
If we can't do more than one big transfer in a summer we might as well call ourselves Luton Town - you'll also see that earlier in this thread, I've said I was presuming we'd been bought by proper owners. And we could find the first £40m by not buying somewhat-ordinary Chelsea midfielders...

My guess is that if we made our interest official, Kane would seek the move. He very clearly wants out and has also never said he want to move abroad. So, again I say: we'll only know if we make a bid. My it seems we are not going to now. so the mods might as well close this thread
I love how people think that if Qatar buys us they'll splash 300, 400 million right away.
who thinks that?
London PaladiumOn what stage does Kane need to prove anything? Ffs
Most pro Qatar posters.
I'am anti Qatari takeover, but wouldn't they? What's the point then?!
