Paper Talk: Harry Kane to land dream January transfer as Tuchel makes big admission; Man Utd ready move for £100m man
Harry Kane can finally land the transfer he’s been pushing for in January, Chelsea star Callum Hudson-Odoi is set to change allegiances, while Saturday’s transfer gossip claims Manchester United are prioritising a £100m man in 2022.
MAN CITY BACK IN FOR HARRY KANE
According to ESPN, via the Daily Express, Spurs are ready to try again for Kane in January. And having learned what a tough taskmaster Levy is, will now meet his asking price.
And with the no-nonsense Spurs chairman valuing his star at £150m, a new British transfer record will comfortably be set.
Our exclusive recently revealed how Kane was open to the idea of a new contract at Tottenham.
However, City believe by moving in January they can unseat the 28-year-old before he signs up.
Meanwhile, Thomas Tuchel has confirmed Chelsea held talks with Harry Kane’s representatives over the summer as they chased a new striker.
The Blues ultimately ended up re-signing Romelu Lukaku from Inter Milan for a club record deal. Tuchel though admits Lukaku is the perfect fit, but also admits that he was informed that Kane would only leave Spurs for Manchester City.
