It's not a huge risk for Tottenham to turn down money. Worst case scenario, he stays as a local lad/squad player on modest wages, who cost them nothing.
It's not like his career will take a straight path depending on what happens next year.

Add in a couple of unfunny jokes on how he'll play players out of position and that sums up most threads these days...
Be clearer next time then and say you think he will be a one season wonder not that he is one.
Yep because our squad didnt have any injuries last season, none at all.
Also Herrera. You can always throw Herrera in.
Lacazette would outscore him in our team IMO.
Can't see Levy selling him this summer and I dont see Kane causing a stir to force the move either. Just signed a new contract.
He must start. Facht!
He must start. Facht!
Yup. If he wont start on Saturday I will go apeshit!
Kane will be used as rotation with Rooney?
I do not know what is funnier, that idea you just formulated or Spurs actually pondering that supposed price. Nevertheless, I have no doubt that Van Gaal will be interested in a player like Kane, but he will not get him at £40m unless we are blackmailing Levy.Edit: Now thinking about it, I would not be surprised to see Kane on bench with Rooney as our primary striker because Louis can Gaal philosophy is unpredictable. The reason could be Kane needs to learn how take a penalty with his eyes closed or something else daft like having Jones on corners
Although I think he's exactly the type of striker Van Gaal would want, capable of occupying both centre backs, very good hold up and link up play, young and hungry, I just can't see it happening. Levy won't sell, Spurs have enough cash to not need to sell, as long as the player is happy enough. He's already said that he'll be playing for Spurs next season, and he seems like a sensible, loyal guy.
Kane will be used as rotation with Rooney?
Yeah, why wouldn't he be?
He's only 22, Spurs played him out of necessity. Spurs and United are two different stories altogether. Going to a club the size of United it'd make sense for him to be part of a squad rotation with Rooney, fail to see the issue here.
You seem to forget that for us to have a successful season we need cover in all areas of the pitch, we will be looking at approx 50-60 games in the season ahead and Rooney will play approx 30-35 games and Kane could still get anywhere between 20-25 matches depending on how our cup runs go.
Some of the rubbish being spewed about United on our tour was incredible by the commentators for the American streams, I can't imagine this is any different. Just a commentator putting 2 and 2 together and pretending it's fact.
Would be a terrible signing. Do not want.
If we are getting Kane, I can not see any other role than him being our primary striker. Rooney will play off him. The idea that he could be a rotation player to Rooney is something I would not put it past Van Gaal to do. As an addendum to your point, Van Gaal did say he wants a world class backup in every position
I admire your optimism Fugi, but Kane has said many times that he loves being at Spurs, that he's a a die-hard fan of the club & has no intention of leaving.
He's a pretty sound & honest lad from what i've heard & read about him, but would he jump at the chance to come to us?
He'd be mental if he didnt, but he's a Spurs fan & very settled. It's all good for him there though,,
No chance Rooney's gonna be playing in midfield man - we just bought 2 CM's for starters. If you mean Rooney playing in the hole - then possibly, but both are very mobile across the last 3rd, so they could interchange & have no set position for the majority of games.
Totally agree. Spurs would be mental to sell him at this late stage & as i said - Kane loves being at Spurs.
As regards to Bale - i'd be shocked if he wants to leave this summer & that Perez would sell either. Perez has a hard-on with possessing world-record transfer fee players - egomaniac shit..
Terrible? he's hardly Emile Heskey!
Who would you propose we get? Realistically!
Most players don't seem to want to move, or would cost us a ridiculous sum of money.
Got scared for a second when I've read some tweet about the alleged offer but thankfully it turned out to be some bullshit spewed by some TV commentator. Thank feck.
Isn't he an Arsenal fan? Or was?

Rooney playing a bit deeper could happen, he could also play Rooney up top with two wide forwards in his preferred 4-3-3 and drop Kane. He's young and has a long career ahead of him, Squad rotation would be fine for him for the season ahead.
Delighted needs to be there in some way or the other in your posts man.
Would be Delighted if the rumours are false.
Rooney and Lampard and Gerrard and every other England player looked shite in at least 3 consecutive International Tournaments....means nothing. Even Messi has only just rectified a pretty crap showing....
Wtf? No formation post yet fitting Kane in?
We need a striker but if we spend the sort of money we'd need to get Kane we'd end up having to fit him and Rooney into the same team (since the latter is undroppable).
I'd far rather bring in someone cheaper who could play an understudy role.

I'd rather us go for Lacazette or Berahino.
Because those 2 have scored more goals?
No chance, honestly Kane all day for me. He is a far more complete forward than Berahino that's for sure, Lacazette what I've seen of him is showing promise but still I think Kane would link up better with Rooney and our other attacking players.
Kane holding the ball up for Depay and Pedro to make runs in from wide positions would be perfect.
No thanks.
Lacazette, yay. But Kane is just as good at the moment i think, and being English is a good thing, despite the extra cost.

Berahino over Kane? ffs
Glaston been on recently telling us that Kane will stay at Spurs forever because he's a fan?
Keane is as good as Harry Kane... Based on ????
Sorry but thats ridiculous - Kane is just off the back of a fantastic season
This is surprising to say the least and highly unlikely IMO. He's a talented striker but if this means Rooney in midfield again then no.
Lacazette has. Berahino scored 7 fewer than Kane in an inferior team.
Commentators curse more like
Good point man
You can blame LvG for that man. Bugger never shuts up about it. It's like he's on the payroll of www.philosophy.com for Christ sake & even the players are coming out with it aswell..
Would be funny if he has been the surprise all the time, but Levy demanded to have him for the first game. Announced during the after match press conference when he comes out in the jersey he got from Rooney after the game, announcing that he will take over as main striker for the season.
Would love for us to sign him, think he could lead the line for us for years. Would be hilarious if he lined up for us against Spurs on Saturday!
Not gonna happen though, it's all fiction I'm sure.

Hope we reshape our academy as soon as possible and start producing players.Kane for 40+,Stones for 30+,hype machine is real...
Those are decent prices when you consider both are English and would probably stay with us for a decade, similar to Rooney and Carrick. Well worth the money imo.
That is a part of the philosophy
