‘A temptation to laugh out loud’ – Jamie Carragher reacts to reported Levy’s Man City agreement

Harry Kane wants to leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer, and while he insists his future is solely in his hands, chairman Daniel Levy feels otherwise. The England international wants to play regularly in the Champions League and win silverware, and he is keen on moving to Manchester City. Spurs will not be playing in Europe’s elite competition again next season after missing out on a top-four finish, and they remain without a trophy since 2008. Joining Man City would give Kane the chance to win silverware every season, ending his decade-long drought at Tottenham. However, chairman Daniel Levy is not likely to let the 27-year-old leave easily, with three years still left on his current deal. According to The Athletic, Kane believes that he made a gentleman’s agreement with Levy last summer....

Harry Kane breaks silence over his Tottenham future, talks about winning regular trophies

Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane has talked about the prospect of winning regular trophies amid interest from the likes of Manchester City and Manchester United. Kane has spent his entire career with the north London club, registering 220 goals and 46 assists from 335 appearances across all competitions. Despite the personal success, he has failed to win any form of silverware, and it is reported that he is assessing his options ahead of the summer transfer window. Kane went on a lap of honour following the 2-1 Premier League debut to Aston Villa yesterday, but caretaker boss Ryan Mason dismissed that he was bidding farewell. However, in a recent interview with Gary Neville for The Overlap, Kane has talked about the possibility of leaving Spurs, saying that he does not want to have any re...

Aguero is likely to undergo his medical shortly after the Champions League final against Chelsea, and a two-year deal could be signed by May 31.

Report: 27-goal star open to joining Man City, club plan to hold talks over a potential deal

Manchester City are keen to sign Harry Kane in the summer transfer window.  On Tuesday, Pep Guardiola was asked in the press conference about whether he would be signing Kane. The Spaniard remained tight-lipped, suggesting he would not comment on a player who is contracted to another club. Kane reportedly has informed Daniel Levy, the Spurs chairman, that he wants to leave Spurs this summer, following a disappointing campaign. Fabrizio Romano, writing for The Guardian, has claimed two crucial points. First, City ‘plan to hold talks over a potential deal’ for the Spurs striker. Secondly, Kane is open to joining City.

‘It is expected’: Levy has made his decision on Tottenham player amid exit reports

Sky Sports dropped a massive bombshell earlier this week, which was partly expected though, given how the season has panned out. They claimed that Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has informed the club owner, Daniel Levy, of his decision to leave the club in the summer. Kane, who earlier claimed that he wants to win trophies in his career along with personal accolades, has once again enjoyed a fantastic season and may end up winning the golden boot. However, Spurs have been below par, and they are unlikely to get into the top four this season. Kane, it seems, doesn’t want to hang around, as another season in the Europa League looms large. A move away from north London looks increasingly difficult, especially when the negotiator is one of the toughest people to deal with. Put simply, it...

Man City & Red Devils reportedly ready to offer Spurs star £80m in wages

City and United are both prepared to hand Kane a five-year contract with a £300,000-a-week basic salary. Tottenham value the England international at £150 million, but they could be forced to do business for around £30m less if Kane insists on leaving. Man City and Man Utd would have ended up paying the star striker around £78m in wages at the end of five years should he join either of them, and there...

Harry Kane tells Tottenham he wants to leave this summer

Harry Kane has reiterated his stance that he wants to leave Tottenham this summer. The 27-year-old has grown frustrated over the club’s inability to compete at the highest level, having seen his side fall out of contention to secure Champions League football for next season. Spurs have long been reluctant to entertain bids for their talisman but the England captain is hoping that they will soften their stance after his long service to the club. Daniel Levy will demand a huge fee for Kane – who prefers a move within the Premier League – as he is on a long-term deal until 2024. Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea are potentially viable destinations, although it is still unclear as to whether a move will materialise. All three of the aforementioned Premier League giants have signif...

Premier League & La Liga giants forced to look elsewhere as Dortmund secure UCL football

Barcelona, Chelsea and Barcelona have received a blow to their summer transfer plans, with Borussia Dortmund securing Champions League football for next season. The Bundesliga outfit suffered a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt last month, which saw them seven points adrift of the top four with seven games to play. Their form has since been sensational with six successive league wins, and they recently guaranteed their Champions League spot with one match remaining. With the qualification, the club are likely to be boosted with the additional revenue, which could have a huge impact on their transfer strategy this summer. Over the past few weeks, there has been plenty of talk regarding Erling Braut Haaland’s future with suggestions that he could move on if Dortmund fail to mak...
