Was berbatov on his final year of the contract? because if anything Levi's negotiating position will only lessen the further we get go the deadline day.
Harry Kane | Bayern Munich player
- Thread starter LawCharltonBest
- Start date
He'll still do it though because he knows Bayern won't walk away from the deal. He will definitely try and drag it out for as long as he can. Didn't he do the same thing with Bale?
He seems to get off on being seen as this ice cold tough negotiator.
There are rumours they were supposed to meet today to discuss the Kane transfer and Levy cancelled last minute and delayed it to next week, which is apparently something he often does. He's a massive pain in the arse to deal with. Spurs never actually win any trophies so this is the closest thing he has to glory.
Most big Spurs transfers are finalised in the end of august. This will probably be the same.
Hugill on loan from us for the season as Spurs naturally leave it too late again
If he wants to win trophies he's going to Bayern
Up until this point. Imagine having the profile of Kane and never winning anything. Bayern is really the only sensible choice if his goal is silverware.
Yeah he sure seems to have a fetish for that kind of role playing there's no denying that but are bayern actually desperate to sign him? I'm not sure, they're probably going to walk the league either way and while he certainly will improve their chances at cl I'm no confident they're willing to fork out say 120 mil.
That has nothing to do with it, Levy doesn't own Spurs, he has a boss, and that boss has told him (according to reports) that Kane is not to be allowed to leave on a free, that means at the end of the window if Kane is still there and still maintaining he won't renew his contract then Levy is in a tough spot, he can disobey his bosses orders or get whatever he canYesterday he was 29 and worth 100 Mio quid, but today he's 30 and no one pays 100 for such an old Player
Levy owns a third though, I'm sure he's just as keen to get a decent fee for Kane as Joe Lewis
it's in both their best interests to do so and reinvest in the squad
Yeah if we haven't even tried to persuade him considering he's Erik's top target that's very disappointing. Makes me think we didn't believe he would be willing to push for move over anyone else so walked away.

Imagine Kane turning down Bayern later in the window and United swooping in with a lower offer that Spurs have to accept rather than losing him for nothing next year
Never happening in a million years
Lewis's best interest and Levy's might not be the same now given the deep do-dah the former is in, ultimately he has the final say though
This thread has been insanely disrespectful to what is one of the biggest and most prestigious clubs in the world
Just bitterness we aren't signing him
The caf has a hard on for bashing anything related to german football in general. It's so weird, and more often than not just childish
I wouldn’t watch the German league if it was being played in my garden.
Yeah they shouldn't be bashed,however so frustrating our owners don't allow us to go big
Same
I do wonder what would be a bigger legacy for Kane. To become the PL’s leading scorer or a few Bundesliga medals
the average SEC fine is a few million dollars and he's worth several billion
I doubt Harry Kane's future is of any relevance to his best interests in that regard, other than doing the best by Tottenham
We won't get him. We'll sign Hojlund and Amrabat and sell some deadwoods and that's it.
There's also potentially up to 20 years jail time
I'm not sure how that's going to impact the Harry Kane transfer, but you never know
Who knows, but the report that he told Levy that Kane was not to leave on a free came at the same time he was indicted, perhaps he's tying to deflect for his persoana issues but it did seem a bit coinicidentalI'm not sure how that's going to impact the Harry Kane transfer, but you never know
Might get a Disasi/Pavard IF Maguire goes
I don't think it's coincidental I think it's reporters making up stuff for clicks like they always do
People who piss away a few quid here and there just because they have 1000 of them usually don't become billionaires
It's all about having access to the people in charge so advantage Hoeneß (cell block 5)I'm not sure how that's going to impact the Harry Kane transfer, but you never know
Would Spurs take Maguire, Fred, Sancho, Mctominay and VDB for Kane?
i’m not sure what relevance this has to anything? The point is it’s not going to be a liquidity issue for him to the point where he needs to sell Harry Kane or Tottenham
he’ll likely contest the case but it’s not like he has much choice in the matter. The SEC rarely lose a case.
I'm paraphrasing a German proverb "von den Reichen kann man sparen lernen" not sure there is a parallel in english, it means roughly "look at a rich man to learn how to save money". The notion that Levy or Lewis don't care about pissing away a few millions just because they could afford it is, in my opinion, off reality
yeah I get what you mean, you’ve just misunderstood my point
I’m not suggesting he doesn’t care about a few million at all, I certainly believe he does care as he’s a rich cnut and that’s usually all they care about
I’m saying that he has enough liquidity to pay the fine without needing to change strategy on the Harry Kane sale
Agreed all good
there is still the human factor of keeping a player who doesn't want to stay. Real life ain't fifa or FM. I interpret the whole opera a game of squeezing out a few mil more from a deal everyone knows will happen
I do. I doubt it entirely. He doesn’t seem very clued up and also seems to be very poorly advised by his Agent brother. That’s how Levy took advantage with his last contract in the first place.
Agreed all good
I interpret the whole opera a game of squeezing out a few mil more from a deal everyone knows will happen
yeah I agree completely, it’s all a negotiation
I think he’ll leave this summer and I reckon Bayern is the most likely destination. But I can also see United making a late move for him
Yeah Bayern will get it over the line unfortunately
You're assuming the sales we're going to make aren't already funding the Mount, Onana, Hojlund and Amrabat transfers. If reports are even semi-accurate that we're capped to £100-£120m net spend due to FFP, we need to sell to fund those 4 transfers, there's no way we'll recoup enough in sales to fund those 4 + Harry Kane on top. We'll need to spend on a centre back if Maguire leaves also.
We also never raise as much in sales as everyone thinks we will.
I suppose it's possible reports are horribly wrong and we're not in FFP trouble at all and can afford another £200+m net spend window, but it seems unlikely.
We have to hope Levy keeps fecking Bayern around and they give up trying to get him until next summer but won't happen
I don’t know what the relationship is with them, but if it is how I imagine, if I were Kane I’d stay the year at Spurs and really feck Levy off in Jan when I sign for whoever the hell I want.
No way is he leaving in January IF by some miracle he is still at Spurs when window closes
