Randal Kolo Muani has emerged as the leading contender to replace Harry Kane at Tottenham, with the French striker likely to cost €80 million.
According to Sacha Tavolieri, Tottenham have reportedly identified Randal Kolo Muani as the leading candidate to replace Harry Kane. The Eintracht Frankfurt star has garnered plenty of interest in this window, and the German club would want €80 million or more.
Speculation surrounding Harry Kane has taken another turn in the last few days as Bayern Munich continues their push to sign the Tottenham star. The 29-year-old is keen to move away from Spurs, having decided not to renew with the north Londoners.
While Tottenham considered selling the striker at the right price, the ENIC group and owner Joe Lewis have directed Daniel Levy to conduct a sale. They do not want the saga to drag through the window and want a quick resolution.
Bayern Munich have already offered Kane a four-year deal with the possibility of a fifth season. The striker has been keen on joining the Bundesliga giants for all this while, but that’s mainly due to a visible lack of interest from elsewhere.
💣🚨 EXCL. Randal Kolo Muani to be the priority target striker for Harry Kane's replacement at #Tottenham !

Next season, when he becomes a free agent, a host of clubs will queue up for his signature, which is why Bayern are desperate to sign him now. Meanwhile, Manchester United are seriously considering to re-enter the chase, but any move will involve complications and mostly a higher fee than what Bayern pays.
As the Kane saga rumbles on, Tottenham have already identified their leading candidate to replace the striker. Randal Kolo Muani emerged on their list, although Spurs have not yet contacted Frankfurt for the forward. As per Sacha Tavolieri, the Frenchman would cost around €80 million.
Spurs are ready to rival a host of clubs for the Frenchman, who has come high in demand since the window opened following his performances last season, which produced 23 goals. As per Tavolieri, Frankfurt are open to selling the striker, and Kolo Muani will consider signing for Tottenham.
It seems like a good door to knock for Tottenham, who will certainly look to negotiate and bring the price down. Frankfurt would want the right fee for their 23-goal attacker, although they could face late competition from many other domestic and European rivals.
