Still don't see how he leaves unless he downs tools. If he does, don't blame him, blame Levy. Kane is at such a high level now he's mixing it with the top 2 or 3 playes in Europe, why would he want another season in the Europa league or even the poxy Europa conference? He's 28 this summer and has dodgy ankles. I dont see him playing at the top level at 32/33.
This is down to years of poor decisions from the board, lack of transfers, then poor make do and mend transfers, Mourinho and most importantly not backing our best manager in a generation.
Levy doesn't want to sell, how can it be on Levy when it's Kane that's pushing to leave?
Bale left because Bale wanted to leave, Walker left because Walker wanted to leave.
Again, there's a lot of rewriting history in that last para, it's very fair to say that Poch also responsible for not bringing in players, he's on record saying he would rather not sign anyone than the wrong one. The whole not being backed argument simply doesn't hold water either, Poch was given what he wanted (control of football) when he was promoted to manager and we as a Club had our hands tied financially whilst building a £1.2b stadium. These are a known set of circumstances, communicated to fans and something that Poch was and had agreed to work under, he knew that score when he signed his new contract.
For me, the biggest mistake was hiring the Dinosaur, called it at the time but half the fanbase were completely on board with it, running around outside White Hart Lane saying we've signed a winner blah, blah, blah. Those same fans now point the finger for something they clearly would have also done.
During this time too, we kept all of our players, as all of them were linked away with big money moves (Lloris, Kane, Dele, Son, Rose, Vertonghen, Eriksen etc) now it turns out reading most of the player thread in here that we should have sold, despite every single time our players were linked arguments went on for pages and pages about us being a "selling club".
It's highly unlikely that he will leave given his age and the amount of money it will cost to acquire him in a post-COViD world (in fact a post COVID world we are actually not in one yet and with new variants immerging it's hard to see a return to football with full stadiums for quite some time), so this puts him beyond the reach of all bar 5 Clubs in the World that would buy him.
The only 3 Clubs I could see him go to are City, Utd. PSG (whilst I don't see it as posible Chavs also have the means to acquire him).
BUT City have never spent more than £60m for a player and don't buy 28yrs olds, also they are high energy pressers Kane doesn't fit with this anymore. Utd are easily the more stupid and have an almost obsession with English players, with Kane as England Captain I can see them being all over this like a rash (but are Utd a serious step up than us? I'd say absolutely not, they are just a different animal financially). PSG are a fucking weird football club with a bizarre Sporting Director so who knows but I just don't see this move being great for Kane, everything about him both on and off the pitch suits the PL.
So, it really is impossible to see how this plays out.
But if those want to point fingers at someone then the reality is there is only one person to point the finger at if that's your want, KANE. If he wants to leave then it's in his hands.
