Harry Kane

[Ashleymcduff]

I get that he isn’t in his early 20s but he isn’t on his last legs either. Nobody was disappointed that we gave KDB a new contract even though he is 2 years older than Kane.

According to the Prem League site, Kane has only missed something like 35 games since 14/15. He plays far more games than many of our players.

I don’t believe its a gamble. He will score goals. If the club decided that they didn’t want to spend £100m on a player with no resale value, fair enough but we don’t sell our best players anyway. Yaya, Vinny, Merlin and now Aguero all left/leaving for nothing at the end of their successful time at the club and nobody batted an eyelid. If Kane comes here for 5 or 6 years, scores a shitload and we win trophies galore, nobody will give a toss if he goes for nothing at the end of it all.

exactly this just given a 30 year old who’s been injured 4/5 seasons he’s been here a 350k week 4 year deal and people don’t want Kane lol lol

Think 50m, Jesus & Sterling would be satisfy all parties.

Sterling would be deployed as a RW (fits his abilities) & Jesus would get a run as the main man in attack.

Sterling is originally from london too, so doubt he’d be against that move.

Your wummery leaves a lot to be desired.

His facial features and proclivity to dive are a problem for me.

This guy will be desperate for trophies after playing for those serial bottlers. If we’re in for him, he’ll choose us 100%

View attachment 17123Looks like they’re getting vexed on the Spurs forum!

The ‘big’ club that last won the league in 1961 aren’t blessed with much self awareness. Gascoigne, Waddle, Sheringham, Modric, Bale, Carrick etc etc etc. Been a feeder club for decades.

So we lose 2 team regulars and just don’t bother replacing them?

There’s a reason the grealish links haven’t gone.

There’s a big difference between giving de bruyne a new contract which saves us amortisation costs and also doesn’t involve any outlay versus signing another player on a huge fee.
He’s not worth the money including the English tax for his age.
It’s 3 years too late.

I’ve always wanted Haaland so much more than Kane but have been of the opinion it’s one or the other.

I don’t particularly like Kane, I think he’s a shithouse but he’s also a very, very good striker who would be guaranteed goals.

I was anti-Bellamy when he signed and within 15mins of his debut I’d completely changed my mind. But with all due respect to Bellamy, we’re talking about one of the best centre forwards in Europe.

It’s a yes from me.

Cant wait for Pep to call us The Harry Kane team.

Part ex deals never happen for massive players.

But IF the only way to sign him was to send someone their way, there's a very short list of candidates.

Anyone suggesting Sterling can dream on, no way they can afford his wages, nor would he want to go there.

Ake? Only been here 5 minutes and still has a lot to offer. But Spurs have been linked before and they are in desperate need of a good centre back. I could see us selling Ake to Spurs for a small loss as part of a deal for Kane, if Ake wanted it.

Jesus is the only other option, as someone who seems firmly second choice and isn't on wages that Spurs can't afford. He'd also be the best replacement for Kane they could possibly get. Downside is, they would massively undervalue him. Also, I'd hate to see him succeed (as he undoubtedly would) at another English club.

I think the most likely scenario is a large fee, say 100m, plus add-ons. 5m every time we win the league and he plays a certain amount of games. 10m every time we win the champions league. If he scores the goals I expect he would, they'd end up with something not too far off the 150m quoted and we'd be happy to oblige.
