Bayern Munich believe lack of funds at Manchester United hinders Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane move
Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich do not believe they need to worry about Manchester United in the race for Harry Kane, according to the Daily Mail.
The Bavarians feel the Red Devils will be unable to come up with the funds to acquire the England international this summer. Spurs would also prefer to sell the 29-year-old to a team abroad rather than lose him to a Premier League rival.
As for the German outfit, there is uncertainty around their bid to get a hold of Kane as well. The Allianz Arena side have had two offers rejected by the North London side so far.
Tottenham value the English skipper at £120 million. It seems unlikely that Bayern will come close to that price tag. The Bundesliga giants are now evaluating leaving the summer chase and reigniting their pursuit in January.
As things stand, the striker’s current contract with the Lilywhites is set to expire at the end of the upcoming campaign. Therefore, the 29-year-old will be available as a free agent next year.
Kane has been outstanding for Spurs for several years now. The English national has established himself as a prolific goalscorer in the Premier League. Therefore, it is no surprise that Daniel Levy wants a considerable sum for him.
However, silverware has eluded the forward at Tottenham. To that end, Bayern have been one of the most successful teams over the last few decades. On the other hand, United also look to be getting back to their best under Erik ten Hag.
We won the Carabao Cup in the previous campaign in the Dutch manager’s debut season. The former Ajax head coach also led us to the FA Cup final. Unfortunately, we lost to Manchester City at Wembley Stadium.
