If Kane wasn’t for sale I think Levy would have made it absolutely clear and City would have distanced themselves from any rumours by now... in the absence of either scenario I’d suggest there’s a good chance this is on...

I respectfully disagree with this assessment. I think the fact spurs have somehow landed an elite manager in conte has changed things significantly. No one could have predicted conte leaving inter Milan so when Kane did his interview most assumeed it would be an underwhelming hire made by levy.

Knowing how competitive conte is there is no way he has taken this job unless the reported stories of spurs refusing to sell Kane are true. Why would conte be happy to walk away from a title winner to go to spurs who also won’t invest unless they sell their only world class player? It just doesn’t make sense. If levy tells conte he won’t sell then he does conte will walk before season starts. Again it doesn’t make sense.

Spurs have also taken out a new long term loan with favourable interest to pay off their short term loan with a bit extra left over. Their financial situation isn’t as desperate as made out on here. They also are still yet to sell stadium naming rights so that is another large chunk of income to come in. My gut says Kane stays for a year and then takes a decision after seeing what conte can do, he has said himself he has 7 years left at the top of his game so why the rush for him now spurs have a legitimate world class manager?

All this is so true. Added with Lukaku’s statement. Martinez set to sign a new deal at Inter. There’s really no one left on the market with Dortmund unwilling to sell also. Silva, Ings type category is all that’s left.

To the Wout Weghorst thread!!

Can't believe people on here want Jack Grealish over Bernardo Silva...
Are these the same people who want to shag Phillip instead of Holly?

Can’t I have both?

Levy can say what he wants. Debts need repaying

Conversely, as a businessman, albeit a businessman in absolute desperate need of many tens of £millions of fluid finance, he can’t say what he wants because the process of negotiation (and a need to keep Spurs supporters onside) forces him to have “Harry’s not for sale” as his mantra.
It doesn’t actually mean anything either one way or the other.
If a bid meets his trigger point for a sale, and if Kane can agree terms with the bidding club, then off he toddles . . with a slight limp due to his dodgy ankles ;-)

Everyone is available if you pay enough.

There is no point paying peanuts for the likes of Ings. Anyway, Khaldoon stated that we weren’t looking for squad fillers, we were signing one or two high quality players.

The scenes on Aug 31st, when Txiki activates the release clause of Eric Garcia and Sergio

Sometimes, you just have to disrupt.

Has similarities to arsenal selling us Nasri, Adebayor, kolo and clichy, new stadium debts to pay off.
Blimey we should own part of the Emirates as that's nearly 100m towards it.

Wonder if just like when United signed Pogba 5 years back, Mino is now starting to make the proper moves to get him out of Dortmund, and we have positioned ourselves at the front of the cue.
