Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly ready to break the bank to keep Harry Kane.
According to the Daily Mail, Tottenham Hotspur are prepared to break their wage structure in order to offer Harry Kane a new contract in 2018.
Spurs saw Kane enjoy another stunning afternoon on Boxing Day, as he bagged a hat-trick in the 5-2 home win over Southampton to overtake Alan Shearer with the most Premier League goals in a calendar year.
It’s now 39 Premier League goals in 2017 for Kane, and that was his eighth hat-trick of the year as defences continue to struggle handling the Tottenham ace.
Now undoubtedly one of the top strikers in football, Kane will be wanted by every team in the game, and Spurs fans are desperate to see him stay with the club for the long-term.
The Daily Mail report that Kane earns £110,000-a-week in wages, which is some way short of what other top strikers earn, and a new deal could be coming in 2018.
It’s claimed that Spurs and chairman Daniel Levy are now ready to offer Kane a bumper new deal at the end of the season, which would shatter the club’s pay structure.
A new deal for Kane could take him towards £150,000 or even £200,000-a-week, with Levy now keen to offer Kane a fourth new contract since August 2014, underlining his continued progression.
Levy is seemingly digging deep to give Kane a suitable contract, but the likes of Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen will be watching closely to see if they can land improved deals in the near future.
