Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Tottenham striker Harry Kane, who wants to join the Red Devils.
According to a report from Daily Mail, Harry Kane is a top target for Manchester United for the summer transfer window. And the Red Devils have already started exploring avenues to bring him to Old Trafford. The report further states that Kane is open to joining Manchester United and the player’s stance has come as a major boost for the Premier League giants.
The 29-year-old England international will be in the final year of his Tottenham contract at the end of the season, and he has been linked with a number of teams in recent months. Clubs like Bayern Munich and Manchester City have tried to sign the player in the past, and it remains to be seen whether Manchester United can pull off the transfer in the coming months.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is a shrewd negotiator and will likely demand a premium for the player’s services regardless of his contract situation. But Spurs are keen on tying the English international to a new contract.
Following the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United have lacked ample depth in the goalscoring department. And Harry Kane would be an exceptional acquisition. He has 15 goals in the league this season. The 29-year-old is at the peak of his career and could form a lethal partnership alongside the likes of Marcus Rashford.
Kane will feel that he has done enough at Tottenham, and he needs to join a club where he will be able to win trophies. Moving to Manchester United might be an attractive option for him. And recent reports have suggested that Old Trafford is a realistic destination for him.
Furthermore, Tottenham are in real danger of missing out on UEFA Champions League qualification given their recent form. So they might struggle to hold on to the best players without the lure of European football. Meanwhile, Kane is open to the idea of joining the Red Devils.
Speaking of, Manchester United have been in impressive form this season, and there is no reason why they cannot mount a late title challenge. They should be able to secure Champions League football for the next season as well. And it will be interesting to see if Manchester United land the Tottenham talisman in the summer.
