Harry Kane’s ‘heart is for Tottenham’ as discussions take place over cut-price transfer
Harry Kane’s intentions may be about to become clear amid speculation regarding a potential return to Tottenham.
The England captain has been away from the Premier League for the last two full seasons, but he is being linked with a sensational potential return in the coming months.
Thomas Frank has expressed his desire to see Kane back at Tottenham, as the boss chose to take a somewhat unusual stance, rather than playing his cards close to his chest, as we have come to expect.
That may have set the cogs in motion for an eye-catching deal to take place, but it could well fall on Kane to have the final say over his future.
Tottenham to strike Harry Kane deal for less than £56m
Tottenham could potentially re-sign Kane for a fee of around £56million, as per the release clause within his contract at Bayern Munich.
The 32-year-old has already broken numerous records during his time in the Bundesliga, but there are several elements of his contract that have the door open for a return to N17, with a buy-back clause also understood to be present in his current deal.
However, ex-Spurs scout Bryan King – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – believes that discussions will already be underway about a potential fee, and adds that the Lilywhites may be able to do a deal for less than Kane’s release clause.
“I would say that the £56m that has been mentioned is a figure that is going to be discussed,” King said.
“But I don’t think it would be £56m. I think Bayern Munich have already recouped a big majority of the money that they paid out for him in shirt sales and sponsorships.
“It would be a great way for Spurs to bring an ambassador back, and somebody to have an influence over the academy and the club.
“I think Kane’s heart is for Tottenham more than it is towards anyone else. I certainly couldn’t see him going anywhere else other than Tottenham.”
Harry Kane return has to be top priority for Spurs
Brooklyn Earick’s potential Tottenham takeover will understandably have the Spurs faithful dreaming of eye-wateringly expensive signings across the board in future years.
- Kane has a staggering 13 goal contributions from five Bundesliga games this term
- He has an unbelievable record of 102 goals across 105 games for Bayern Munich in all competitions
- He has surpassed 25 league goals in each of the last three seasons
However, there appears to be a genuine possibility that a move for Kane could be achievable for them within the next few windows.
The N17 outfit are desperately lacking a top-quality striker to help take them to the next level, and their former star remains among the world’s best, despite his ever-increasing age.
Frank’s side have been the subject of jokes from rival fans during many transfer windows over the years, but landing Kane would be a coup that every single rival club would be envious of.
