The Sun reported this week that Manchester United are weighing up a £170 million bid for Tottenham Hotspur hitman Harry Kane.

The 23-year-old is arugably the finest centre-forward in world football and has managed 11 goals in his last six games across all competitions for Spurs.

Speculation over such a phenomenal talent is inevitable and The Sun reports that United boss Jose Mourinho is considering a mega-money offer for him.

But Tottenham legend Graham Roberts is taking the rumour with a pinch of salt and suggested that the England marksman is worth significantly more than that.

Neymar Jr. #10 of Brazil and Rivaldo Coetzee #5 of South Africa battle for the ball at Mane Garrincha Stadium on August 4, 2016 in Brasilia, Brazil.

Roberts is as pro-Tottenham as you’ll find on Twitter – perhaps understandable considering he spent six years at White Hart Lane – but the 58-year-old might well have a point.

If Neymar is worth £199 million then Kane – who scored 15 more goals than the Brazilian last term – can’t possibly be worth less.

The Spurs sensation is also 18 months younger than his Brazilian counterpart.

Kane has scooped the Premier League’s Golden Boot for the last two years and another goal-laden season this time around, which is inevitable, will only see his value increase.
