Harry Kane is England's greatest player, says Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney.

When discussing the greatest strikers of our generation, Harry Kane’s name is always in the conversation. A Tottenham legend, Kane carried the team for years, despite the difficult quest for his first trophy. Now, Manchester United are reportedly eyeing a sensational move to bring the Bayern Munich star back to the Premier League. Newly-appointed manager Ruben Amorim is keen to have the prolific Englishman lead the Red Devils’ attack, as reported by Fichajes.net.

Now in his second season in the Bundesliga, Harry Kane has adjusted effortlessly to the German league’s pace. Despite not yet securing major silverware, the former Tottenham star has showcased his prowess with an incredible 61 goals in as many appearances for Bayern Munich. His prolific form underscores his status as one of the world’s best strikers, and many believe that significant team success is just around the corner.

Could the England captain return to Premier League

A return to the Premier League and the chance to lead Ruben Amorim’s ambitious project at Manchester United present appealing opportunities for Harry Kane. However, any club vying for his signature would face a significant challenge in matching or surpassing his current weekly wage £414,000.

Despite having a talented striking partnership in Rasmus Højlund and Joshua Zirkzee, Ruben Amorim is reportedly keen to strengthen Manchester United’s attacking options as it has been in the recent reports that United wants to loan out Zirkzee as the Dutchman has not yet adapted well at the hardest league The Red Devils have now been linked with Sporting CP’s star forward Viktor Gyökeres, who recently delivered a standout performance against Manchester City while playing under Amorim’s management.

Recent reports suggest that Ruben Amorim may favour Harry Kane over Viktor Gyökeres as his preferred addition to Manchester United’s attack. The 31-year-old forward, who has been described as “sensational,” is reportedly one of United’s top priorities, according to Fichajes. Given Kane’s vast experience in the Premier League and his proven quality as a star striker, the move could potentially be a guaranteed success. However, negotiating a deal would be challenging, considering Kane’s pivotal role at Bayern Munich and the club’s reliance on him.

Understandably, Bayern Munich are reluctant to part ways with their top goalscorer, as England captain Harry Kane’s contract runs until 2027. However, there is a growing sense that an “astronomical offer” could compel the German giants to reconsider. This makes Kane’s potential return to the Premier League one to watch closely. The striker, who is just 47 goals shy of Alan Shearer’s all-time Premier League goal-scoring record, could be motivated by the prospect of breaking that milestone.
