Speaking on the Transfer Window Podcast, journalist Ian McGarry has claimed that serious negotiations are underway between Manchester United and Harry Kane.
The England striker sent shockwaves across the Premier League on Monday after it was widely reported that he’s looking to leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer, and as you can imagine, this put the Premier League’s big boys on red alert.
Manchester United were one club credited with an interest, and McGarry is led to believe that they’ve spoken to the striker about coming to Old Trafford and signing a bumper contract.
“Now, Harry Kane confirmed out story by representatives briefing the media on Monday that Kane has asked to leave Tottenham and also that United, City and Chelsea are interested in signing him,” McGarry said.
“Our information is that United are the only club so far that have entered into serious negotiations with Kane representatives regarding a contract, which could be worth around £300,000-a-week, a substantial upgrade on what he earns at Tottenham Hotspur.”
This is certainly interesting to hear.
Kane wants to leave Spurs, and if we’re being honest, Manchester United are a club that could very easily win a few trophies in the coming years.
United are set to finish second in the Premier League this season, while they’re also in a Europa League final, and things finally seem to be coming together under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Kane could be the final piece of the puzzle at Old Trafford, but whether or not the Red Devils can match Daniel Levy’s undoubtedly lofty asking price remains to be seen.
