Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I personally think this holiday stuff is bullshit. How can there be a 'breakdown in communication'??
If I was taking an extra holiday when I was meant to be working, I would double check with my boss beforehand.
Also, if this was the case, he would have said something immediately when Sky Sports reported he hadn't arrived at the training ground. Not wait 5 days for an ambiguous instagram post, and then leak this all to the Telegraph 2 weeks later.

Club could (and would) have set the record straight on day one of the tabloid frenzy too.
 
We don’t want to show our hand but we need to find a way to get this deal done.

The guy has mentally checked out. I don’t think we want him around the camp when his heart is clearly elsewhere this season.

Add to that I’m convinced he isn’t going to age particularly well, and I think we’ll regret not doing a deal this summer if we don’t get it done.

Selling Kane does not have to be a disaster for this club.
Spot on. Just want £140m minimum and get this resolved because him staying will not end well. This shit just drags on through the season. Every minute of every game and post match will be about Kane.
 
yeh sure gentleman’s agreement like Levy said I will sell you on the cheap.

City can have you if they pay up but not until then.
 

These idiots never fail to amaze me. They bought Nathan fucking Ake and Benjamin Mendy for 110M, Grealish for 100M, and now think that 125M is enough for the best striker in the League. What the fuck are they smoking in Manchester?
 
Honestly, it beggar's belief that some "fans" think we should sell the best striker in the world with 3 years left on his contract for lower than our asking price, which should be fucking high.
 
Levy and Joe Lewis are to blame for Kane wanting to leave.

Nobody else.
We're not blaming Kane for wanting to leave, we're blaming him for how he tried to do it. Giving himself a price in a public interview (which is more annoying considering that he's much more expensive than that value), not showing up to training, not even congratulating his team-mates and trying to make us look like fools with a half-arsed PR letter...

I fully agree that it’d be best if Kane was sold for the reasons you laid out and more.

That doesn’t mean we should just let him go for lowball horseshit that City have been proposing. Also seeing as that Burt and Sami stories were clear leaks from Kane’s camp and City, I’m sure the £125m referenced is £100m + add ons, as reported previously by others. Fuck that, pay us.

I hate Levy mas he is right. We can´t sell Kane almost for the same price than City buy Grealish. City has to improve the bid. And we also need to have a good replacement
 
Hilarious how badly his perception of this is.

Does he really think anyone believes a word of it? That he hasnt already soured his relationship with the fans? That everyone will just clap him off to City so he can get the medals he deserves?

Honestly never had him down as that sort of guy, but its undeniable now though.
Sure everything on Kane’s side hasn’t exactly been done by the book, but come on don’t be so naive to believe that little old Spurs are totally innocent in this.

For example, would anyone really be that shocked if it was the case that the whole “he hasn’t shown up to training” fiasco was actually leaked by the club intended on painting them as the good guys in the eyes of the fans?
Dismiss the theory if you will, but considering the behavior of the hierarchy of this club over the last few years, absolutely nothing would surprise me.

As someone said they paid £110m for Ake and Mendy. Pep has spent nearly £1 billion. It is disgusting. Truly abhorrent. They need to pay a lot more than £125m.
 
Charlie and Harry had no chance against Levy. Sorry but they are complete amateurs, not very smart, so yeah he does want to join City but it's not going to happen because City won't make a reasonable offer and because all this is child's play for Levy and he ain't entertaining any sale of his biggest asset.

Kane himself leaked it to his England teammates at the Euros. He was mouthing off that he was going to miss training.
 
The Kane's attempts at manipulating the fanbase via Jason Burt are yet again so easy to see through.

They are clearly rattled by the fans reaction to their behaviour.

Assumed they were bigger than the club.
 
The public framing of this story remains odd.

We aren’t refusing to let Kane go, City are refusing to match the very clear price (£150m) that we’ve set for Kane’s sale.

Clubs been clear all along they dont want to sell. They dont need to play along with all City and Kanes bollocks.

Kanes the one acting out, complete fuck you to the club and fans, because he's decided he deserves medals elsewhere.

3 years on contract, we have his balls in a vice, and all he's done so far is tighten it.
