Wouldn’t want him here. I’m a massive fan of Lukaku and want him to succeed at United.

No thank you
Last thing I want is United inquiring about Verratti and PSG triggers Pogba’s buyout clause
He has one? How much?
Spurs should take the money
Thirded.
We already have Lukaku so I don’t think we need H.Kane atm.
And as the price quoted there it’s low,Levy would make Madrid bleed, he would easily go in between £ 250 -300 in today’s market.
Idk if he has one or not, just said it for the bantz hahah
Time to recall James Wilson for a swap deal, Woody.
Funny how not long ago Kane was a one season wonder and 50 mill was a gamble. To his credit he's been doing the business ever since and a few months ago I thought he'd be Madrid's top target.
What might be good for the Premier League top 4 chasers is if he goes it might relax the 6 team rat race although it's not good to see top players go.

One of Kane, Dybala, Hazard or Neymar will land in Madrid next season i think. It just matter of who will fall the trap to buying Ronaldo, Benzema or Bale from them. Hope thats not United.
Levy will be thinking about the stadium and sell to his buddies Real Madrid. He seems to have a good connection, considering their 2 best players left for Madrid.
No thank you

Premier League players don't have buy out clauses. They are not legally binding.
This could be a start to Spurs losing all their key players. If Chelsea lose Hazard, I could see them going in for Deli Alli. With them two gone, Eriksen could possibly leave as well if Juve or Bayern come calling. Eriksen could fit in at United but don't see us doing any business with Levy.
In the end the player decides. If he wants to stay in the country they´d have to sell him. It would not make sense to be with a disgruntled player despising that amount.
Personally I don't see how any club can turn down 200m for a player. If they bid that sum its bye bye to HK. Interested to hear what @GlastonSpur thinks on a 200m for one player?
100%. Obviously Kane deserves wages just about as high as any player in the world. Eriksen, Alli, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Llloris, Dier, even Son now. Don't think Spurs can afford to agree new contracts for all these players at market value so there will be players leaving.
No way Spurs sells any of their best players, just as they're on the cusp of their new stadium promised land.
Will be very interesting summer. Madrid need to rebuild their team and haven't spent big money in last few years, there isn't a better striker than Kane for Madrid (considering Age and completeness).
Very true. We need to make smart purchases. David Luiz would do nicely.
Think Woody's preparing a straight-swap deal for Lukaku.
In all seriousness, I don't think he'd leave Spurs for another Prem club given his affinity. But the challenge to go to Real Madrid and be their main goal threat...I could see how that would be tempting. Especially if Spurs do not do two of two things: buy top class players. pay them top class wages.
Kane is worth far more to Spurs than £200m - because of his value on the pitch to the team and also because of various potential commercial deals to do with the new stadium which dwarf that sum.
Kane to RM this summer is total non-starter and simply won't happen - for the reasons given above and several more besides ... but I'm sure that won't stop various posters on here claiming otherwise.
Hope he goes. Don’t do a Shearer on it.
Why? We don't need it. The club is profitable and our income will soon sky-rocket.
Or if the argument is that, with £200m to spend, we could improve the team (even without Kane) beyond where it is now, then the same argument must be applied to RM in reverse: i.e. that they could improve their team more by spending £200m on 2 or 3 players rather than signing Kane.
But it's all academic anyhow, because Spurs won't take the money even if offered it.
It's a tricky one as I think it will be this summer or not at all, Real Madrid can't wait another summer to get in a top striker so if Kane doesn't go then they'll buy Icardi. I think where Spurs finish this season will have an effect and of course the main thing will be how ambitous Kane is, will he see what Bale did and take the chance of playing abroad, or is he going the Shearer route.
Non starter for us mate, we've had issues with Levy in the past and like with Moric and Bale he'll make sure Kane is sold out of the country even if it means taking less money, plus I think Kane will probably want to avoid the backlash of going to any of the other top English sides, and of course we bought Lukaku, so for now our bed is made and we lie in it as regards the striker position.

You often talk about your guesses (hopes) as if they were facts, don't you?
Money transfer was made on 3rd August, exchange rate that date was 0.90386 (XE.com). That would surely be £200,656,920.
Whats the several more reasons besides? I only ask because a good friend of mine is a spurs fan and a staunch one at that like yourself whom would have actually taken what we payed for Lukaku. Mind you you he has never been Kanes biggest fan which I've never understood. Personally I would love him at United but I would actually prefer to see him stay at Spurs for the competition aspect. If Spurs can match his ambitions it would be great that he stays so they can continue to challenge domestically and progress in Europe. The only other striker for RM worth going for is Lewa at Bayern and im not being an asshole by saying this but they just don't seem to sell their top end players ever.
I could easily see Bale used as part of the deal to bring Kane to Bernabeu. This could appease the Spurs fans and Levy would possibly do well with 120m + Bale.
Saying this is a none starter is silly. There is absolutely no reason to think Kane wouldn't want to go to a bigger, better club who would pay him a wage befitting his contribution. The same way Modric and Bale did.
Doesn't work like that. Ignores the context. You buying 3-4 50m players would probably do more for you than Real doing that.
What? That's even worse than 200m.
Well I was just throwing out numbers but the point I was trying to make was Real could get rid of Bale by brokering him in the deal that takes him to Spurs. Although, I think Spurs would find it difficult to pay his wages.
This is just a start.
All big talks but when the deal happens, move the goal posts and come up with excuses.
Ah, I know the problem. Papers/websites had done the conversion the day before the 3rd and just stuck with the £198m figure after despite the exchange rate increasing to take it over £200m. You're right - the Neymar deal would have been over £200M.
I doubt Spur would sell Kane for 200m.
People who think we could get Kane are being unrealistic. Not only is Levy an absolute cretin but no way Mourinho or the board would sanction a 200m bid for Kane after making a big investment in Lukaku only last year. We don't need him anyway, that 200m would go a long way to filling other gaps in the squad. As for Real Madrid, If Tottenham miss out on Champions league and his head is turned I could see it happening. The lure of Real Madrid is something very few players could resist.
First point. Haven’t history learnt you anything? Ronaldo. Bale. Suarez. Coutinho. Just to mention four players leaving English clubs. If Kane wants a new challenge, playing for probably the most prestigious club in the world, then he goes. Sooner or later.
Second point. Every wise businessman knows that everything in life has a price. £200m is more then the valuation for Neymar. M’bappé. Pogba. Today Arsenal learned the hard way what’s happening when you delay the inevitable.
Kane is a fabulous player. Scoring goals for fun. But isn’t it a little bit early to call him the best striker in the world? Wait until the season has ended. CL? WC?
Finally. Glaston! I admire your tough stance. Your belief and optimism is top notch. But stop pretending that you hold the cards and own your beloved club. You don’t. Levy sold Berbatov, Modric and Bale. He will sell more players before he steps down. If the valuation is right, the player wants to leave, then there is nothing he can do in the end. Trust me. You don’t want a ongoing saga of speculations, disappointed players and supporters. Take the magical £200m when you can and re invest. That’s the wise decision. (Good night. Tomorrow I will find out why the world isn’t round. Don’t you think Glaston )
Won't happen unless Kane pushes for it.
Although looking forward to Ballbag claiming that Kane is in constant tears because Levy is holding him prisoner instead of allowing his dream move to Madrid.

Fecking hell, Real Madrid don't even have an NFL pitch, what chance do they have?
Arguably the best striker in the world leaving the league would be a damn shame. It shouldn't happen.
Yep. In Spain for example it’s common practice. Sergi Roberto springs to mind. The most recent example...
We will match whatever they offer, im positive of that!
That kind of money for a single player is absurd. Much rather let other clubs do that and instead focus on better scouting. Signing the top young players and developing them into world class stars, is what this club is all about.
Martial is a prime example of this. I’d like more deals like that.
