LONDON, July 11: After links to Bayern Munich, Harry Kane returns to work at Tottenham this week for preseason training.
The uncertainty around the England captain’s future at Spurs, however, is not going away.
New Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou held his first news conference on Monday since joining from Celtic and was immediately asked about Kane, who enters the final year of his contract at the London club. “I haven’t had any assurances (about his future) and I wouldn’t expect any assurances,” the Australian manager said. “He’s one of the premier strikers in the world and I want him involved.”
Postecoglou, known for being a blunt speaker, plans to hold a meeting with Kane this week.
“My conversation with him will be about how we can make this club successful and I’ve got no doubts that’s what he wants as well,” Postecoglou said. “What I want is to introduce myself to Harry and give him my vision of the football club and get a sense from him on what he thinks the club needs to do to be successful, and walk out on that training pitch and try to make it happen.”
Tottenham wants to tie the club’s all-time leading goal-scorer to a new long-term contract.
Bayern, however, may test that resolve, having reportedly made two bids, with the latest one valued at 68.5 million pounds ($88 million).
The question is whether that will tempt others to the table. Manchester United has long been linked with Kane, and wants to sign a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo this offseason.
Real Madrid needs to replace the departed Karim Benzema and has also been mentioned in connection with Kane.
Then there is Paris Saint-Germain, which is intent on selling Kylian Mbappe unless its World Cup-winner signs a new contract. (AP)
