And he has been linked with a move to Manchester City who are keen on signing the forward but Spurs would scare them off with their asking price.

The Citizens have also expressed interest in Aton Villa midfielder Jack Grealish but have not decided if they will be a pay a staggering £100m for the Englishman.

Kane signed a six-year deal with Tottenham in 2018 and his deal was set to run until 2024, however, Spurs' failure to win silverware remains the problem for the forward.

He had yet another prolific season in 2020/21 as he bagged 23 top-flight goals to claim the golden boot for the third time in his career in the Premier League.

New Spurs boss Nuno Espirito Santo played down speculation of Kane’s future in his first press conference when he was first appointed. Nuno said at the time:

"Harry is our player. Period. No need to talk about anything else, I am looking forward to him joining the group.”

Why Man City want Harry Kane

Legit.ng earlier reported that Tottenham star Harry Kane may have been given the green light to join Manchester City in a massive deal that would smash the British transfer record.

Kane’s future has been subject to speculation from May 2021 after England forward made it clear he wanted to leave the North London club.

Manchester City has been his most likely destination but a potential deal has always been hampered by the fact that Spurs were not necessarily willing to let their star man go.
