Doesn't matter how much Kane wants to come to us, contracts are worth more than gentleman's agreements. This is why contracts get signed, because gentleman's agreements are wishy washy and vulnerable to being reneged on. Levy's got the right to demand £150m for Kane and if we can't pay it, which we won't be able to unless we flog Bernardo, then Kane will be staying exactly where he's contracted to. As I said, if he wanted to leave Tottenham so badly then he shouldn't have signed a 6-year deal midway through his career. Nobody held a gun to his head and forced him to sign it. Kane's trying to force a way out of Spurs but will end up staying there, meanwhile Grealish is turning up and training for Villa and will still get the transfer he wants. That should tell you everything you need to know about how badly Kane has been advised here.
No disrespect, but I think Kane is able to make up his own mind, regardless of any advisors. You and I would be the same.
You are right. A Gentleman's word is worth nothing legally. But it is worth everything in principle.
Harry Kane probably signed that new 6 year contract on the back of negotiations and promises from Levy. Those promises haven't happened. In-fact, it's gone from bad to worse at Spurs under Levy.
And during that time Kane has given his all for Spurs and for Spurs fans. Kane has dragged Spurs to cup finals, into the CL, but ultimately fallen short every season due to poor managers, poor signings, and lack of investment in the team and squad, sacrificed for the sake of a brand new stadium that has brought nothing but debt to Spurs.
Kane has 5 years left as a top player. As of now he hasn't won a single trophy. This will be his last big move and pay day.(let's be honest about that)
When you have one final opportunity to play for Pep, play alongside KDB, Sterling, Mahrez, Foden, Gundo, Grealish(?), etc, and you have a chance of winning the PL title, the CL, domestic cups, you don't turn that final opportunity down. You do what ever you have to to make that opportunity happen.
