Harry Kane contract and transfer news Ne

Tottenham Hotspur's underwhelming first half of the 2022/23 Premier League season has led to intensified speculation about Harry Kane's future at the club where he has spent his entire career.The England captain and three-time Golden Boot winner is in his prime as he approaches his 30th birthday in July and would be a deadly option for any leading club in the world, while Spurs will be desperate to keep hold of their most prolific player.Kane's contract ends at the end of the 2023/24 campaign, meaning a move would almost certainly have to happen by the start of next season if Spurs are to cash in.Here's the latest on Kane's potential departure, as well as how likely it looks that he will stay at the club and the implications of his next move.MORE: Kane is open to beginning negotiations over a contract extension once the transfer Willie Brown Jersey window closes in England at the end of January, according to the latest report from transfer news expert David Ornstein.No serious discu sions have been held by Kane's representatives about leaving the club, Ornstein wrote in , adding that Kane will continue at Tottenham if his conditions are met.Kane's expectations could include doubling his weekly wage to 400,000 ($495,000), which he was said to have sought after Manchester City's move for him fell through in August 2021.Speaking after his goal secured a 1-0 win at Fulham and saw him equal Jimmy Greaves Nate Hobbs Jersey ' goalscoring record for Spurs, Kane said: "There's not been much talk if I'm totally honest. I'm sure there'll be conversations over the coming months but to be honest I'm just focused on this season and doing my best for the team." United are the team to have been most consistently linked with Kane and, as the established biggest spenders in the Premier League before Chelsea's colo sal outlay so far this season, they could be the most willing to pay his purported transfer fee of at least 100m ($123m).Tottenham wanted 150m ($184m) when City tried to capture Kane but the dwindling length of his contract means Spurs chairman Daniel Levy would have to listen to lower bids if no new terms are agreed. Getty Images The surprise arrival of Netherlands targetman Wout Weghorst on loan from second-tier Burnley showed that United want a No.9 ideally one capable of becoming the first player since Robin van Persie in 2012/13 to score more than 18 Premier League goals for them in a season. Manager Erik ten Hag is a fan of Anthony Martial, but the France international's persistent injury problems this season has meant the club is likely to make signing a striker a priority in 2023.With Kane's willingne s to move in doubt and their best chance of signing him arguably coming almost two years ago, United have been looking at 24-year-old Napoli forwardVictor Osimhen, the scorer of 13 goals in 15 appearances for the runaway Serie A leaders so far this season.However, Napoli's valuation Las Vegas Raiders Hoodies Sweatshirts of Osimhen at 100 million (88m / $109m) minimum has lost the Nigeria international his place at the top of United's wishlist, according to Sky Sport transfer reporter .City's investment of 51.2m ($63m) to sign Erling Haaland from Boru sia Dortmund last summer was repaid by 25 goals and three a sists during the first half of the season nine more goals than Kane, and a rate that put the Norway sensation on course to comfortably break the individual record of 34 goals in a single Premier League season.That record is held by Andy Cole and Alan Shearer, and the Newcastle heroes' former side would also be one of the few clubs capable of meeting a vast price for Kane because of their new-found riches since being taken over by a consortium backed by the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia in 2021.Shearer set the Premier League individual goals record of 260 while he was at St James' Park after a previous prolific spell with Blackburn Rovers. Kane reached 200 with the only goal of the game against Manchester City on February 5, which also moved him ahead of Greaves at the top of Tottenham's all-time list with 267. Kane has not won Malcolm Koonce Jersey any trophies at the club where he made his senior debut in 2011.He came closest to glory when Tottenham lost to Liverpool in the 2018/19 Champions League final and has been an EFL Cup runner-up twice.It is a stark contrast to Kane's individual honours, which include winning the Golden Boot at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, being named in the PFA Premier League Team of the Year five times and becoming the top-flight Player of the Month seven times alongside those three prizes for top scorer in the division.The highest Tottenham have finished in the Premier League with Kane for company is second in 2016/17, when they ended seven points behind Chelsea under Mauricio Pochettino, the manager responsible for their run to the Champions League final.Its obviously an extremely divisive topic given the fact that trophies are the be all and end all of succe s in so many supporters minds these days but for me, Harry Kane doesnt need a title or cups to go down as one of the English games true greats.His numbers are mad. HLTCO (@HLTCO) The dilemma for Kane appears to be whether he stays at Tottenham or makes a move that would give him a greater chance of avoiding an exceptional career ending without a club trophy.In 2019/20 and 2020/21, Tottenham matched and then beat their worst finishes in a decade by coming sixth and seventh under the guidance of Jose Mourinho, who was sacked towards the end of the latter campaign and replaced after a lengthy delay by Nuno Espirito Santo.City's move for Kane came as Tottenham's malaise deepened during Santo's brief reign at the start of Davante Adams Jersey the 2021/22 season, but the Spurs talisman has been more settled under the fiery management of Antonio Conte, a Premier League champion during his time in charge of Chelsea.Conte has improved Tottenham but they have struggled to find the consistency required to compete for the title. The win over City left them one point off the Champions League places in fifth.MORE:Arsenal, Newcastle and Manchester United have all improved considerably this season and City are perennial contenders, while Conte's own remarks about the direction of the club have fuelled uncertainty around his future.If Kane seriously considers leaving Spurs and the Premier League in search of silverware, there is always the po sibility that he will follow the well-trodden path among leading English stars of joining Spanish sides Real Madrid or Barcelona.A move to Madrid would depend greatly upon whether the reigning La Liga champions succeed in their long pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe.Barca's well-documented financial troubles have included struggling to push on with targeting players because of wage bill rules, but their willingne s to pull their economic 'levers' selling a sets to allow themselves greater room tomanoeuvre has helped them to remain powerful
