Ehhh.... this is nowhere near the best Spurs side in our history.
Until he comes out and says so, or his agent starts putting him in the window, all anyone can do is speculate.
It's a bit unfair without basis to assume that every single footballer's intent is to get as bewilderingly rich as possible. You just don't know what his primary motivation is. Playing for his club, living in London, being close to family may well mean as much or more to him than swapping his £120k p/w for £250k p/w. 120 grand a week is still an eye-watering amount of money, let's not forget.
He appears to be happy, with the way he plays and projects himself on the pitch, and despite his consistent performances, there is hardly ever any noise about him angling to leave every transfer window. If he wanted out, clubs would be pushing for him, and there'd be noise every window. Other than this supposed Madrid bid, which is currently just media talk, who else has made a genuine push for him? Happy players cause little to no speculation.
I believe it will come down to Spurs' ability to push for trophies more than the finances. If they fail for Top 4 this season, then there might be some noise coming from his camp, but if Spurs can grow and push for the title, then I think he'd be happy to stay. But like you, I'm just speculating too.
Well, considering football was invented in 1992, I think you'll find it is the best team in your history.
With the rate he's banging goals in the Premier League, I can see Kane putting prime CR7 numbers in La Liga with ease.
Ahh yeah - sorry forgot about that. What a fool I am.
He would have to hit the ground running is my point, which he hasn't done yet in any season for Spurs in August. Real pay 200 million, they wants goals asap. At Spurs he's a hero, Real fans wouldn't be too slow in letting him know there displeasure. I know Ronaldo was greedy, but kane has nearly 50 more shots than anyone in PL. I know selfish strikers is usually a good thing, but he does have a tendency to shoot when others are better placed. That's okay when your the main man at Spurs, but at Real if you have a Neymar or a Hazard or whomever better placed and you shoot and miss, not sure how well that would go down.

Harry kane for United is an at all cost player. Homegrown 30 goal a season player, English and commercially extremely viable. But I don't think he will move this summer. Spurs will want him to play in the new stadium for atleast 1 season.
I'm just going to point out that if we're willing to pay £200m in transfer fee, that means we're also willing to offer something in the region of ~£600/700k a week to Kane...
How you derive this from my post only you will know.
Spurs might not finish in the top 4, then again we might. Right now we're only 2 points off top 4, which is hardly a yawning gap that can't be overcome.
I'm sure Kane would be happier if we was earning more, but the fact that he isn't doesn't make him unhappy at Spurs ... and there isn't the slightest shred of evidence that he is unhappy, quite the reverse in fact.
you mean something like 18/20m€ net?
Say what? You clearly don't know much about Spurs' history.
Really? In England maybe, not so much abroad.
~€20/25m net a year, yeah
Uniteds commercial department will turn him into a marketing machine. Look at what we did with Rooney.
Really hate these pointless pissing contests.It’s like two tramps fighting over dropped chips.
You can say many things about Kane, first and foremost that he is an extremely good footballer, but in no way is he a commercial dream. The guy is extremely dull! Just like the whole Tottenham-team to be fair, there is not a single character in that team. Kane speaks funny, looks like a half-wit and never does anything out of order. Kane scores lots of goals, that's it.
Why is United even in the conversation. We got Lukaku just half an year ago and he's the same age as Kane. We won't be buying any new high profile striker anytime soon IMO.
Rooney looks like shrek, spoke incomprehensibly when he first came and was an absolute nincompoop off the pitch when younger. PR consultants can work wonders. Also, in places like China white players are commercially more marketable for sponsors. It's why most of reals galacticos are white.
A lot of United fans on here talk like if there's an English player who's world class he SHOULD be playing for United. It's quite arrogant. Also it's not 2009. Harry's a Spurs lad May not stay forever but it'll be abroad to a top top side if he goes.
We can always play with 2 strikers to accommodate him. Also I think he can play abit deeper off another player and still be very effective.
We won't play with 4 attackers mate. We already have Martial and Sanchez along with Lukaku.
I don't see him as a SS or working well with Lukaku either.
200m for Kane is mental, but then you have Coutinho going for 140, so...
The other guy said that Harry Kane's goals record is because of this being the best side in history, whereas Lukaku played for some shit sides, hence the difference in the goal scoring records. I should have said "one of the best" but I quoted him directly. I made the post in your players favor actually.
No big deal. No need to get your panties in a bunch.
You Spurs fans walk with such a huge chip on your shoulders that I sometimes wonder how are you even able to walk. It's sad really. Always scrambling for more respect. So needy.

Yeah well I really hate Man Utd fans totally dismissing what is a plain fact.
You sound like Donald Trump. So sad. Fake news.
This. I've said it earlier in the thread and worth repeating. There is no conversation to be had here. We spent almost 80m quid on Lukaku. We're not signing Kane for obvious reasons. Further to that it could upset Pogba as him and Lukaku are friends and both are Raiola clients. We've just pushed out Mkhi who's also a Raiola client. Signing Kane could mean losing both Lukaku and Pogba. Simply not worth it.
Kane isn't even Spurs best striker in history, that's Jimmy Greaves, and the team he played in was a better one (in comparison to what they played against) than this one.
£100m, Lukaku and Rashford.
The best English players should be playing for United; Kane is the best one in 10 years, since a (prematurely) peaked Rooney, and he’s an animal in the Champions League too.

I hope this is true. I don't rate him as highly as the others and he will go to a club I don't really care for. Win win for us.
Kane > Pogba, and any of Raiola’s other clients.
If Mourinho’s intent on playing 4-2-3-1, signing Ozil ect, he neutralises Pogba’s impact anyway. If it means acquiring Kane, sell him, and rescue Kante from the Chelsea circus. Sign Mahrez too...
A midfield/attack of
—————Kante——-Matic————
Mahrez———Ozil————Sanchez
——————Kane————————
Is more likely to win the league than one incorporating Pogba deep and Lukaku.

No white text?
I'm done.
"Kane > Pogba"

"Cristiano Ronaldo + Trophies > Man Utd"
Add more famous quotes.
I just don't see Kane as having the ambition to move on from Spurs.
I think he is a Le Tissier/Shearer type who will stay where it's comfortable and not push themselves further.

wait, what????
What would the value of BBC be in the summer?
If Madrid offered all 3 for Kane would Spurs fans take it?
Ronaldos age puts him at 80m odd for me.
Benzema would be in the 60s with Bale around 100m due to his injury problems.
So 240m euros would be too far off from this rumoured bid and it still leaves 200m Madrid would have spent on strengthening the remaining 2 positions.
The wages are a killer and 100% wouldn't happen but if a Madrid or Spurs fan could push a button to make it so would they do it?
