Tim Sherwood suggested that Tottenham ace Harry Kane would only consider leaving north London for Real Madrid, when speaking exclusively to ESPN.

Real Madrid are keen admirers of Kane, and according to the Sun, the Spanish giants are prepared to pay £200 million to acquire his services in the summer.

“It would be a wrench for him to leave Tottenham and go somewhere else. If he goes anywhere, it would be Real Madrid. He’s a Real Madrid kind of player.”
