Man Utd placed on purple alert for Harry Kane as Levy ‘receives message’ from above

The Red Devils imagine £70m could be a good worth for Kane as a result of his contract state of affairs. Lewis’ ultimatum might drive the worth down and allow United to re-enter the race for the 29-year-old.

United have been getting ready their opening provide for Hojlund. However, they might put that deal on maintain till Kane’s future is resolved.

Erik ten Hag’s probabilities of signing Kane could possibly be boosted by his want to interrupt Alan Shearer’s Premier League goalscoring report. He at present has 213 top-flight targets to his title, 47 behind Shearer’s tally of 260.

Kane scored 30 targets in an under-performing Tottenham aspect final season. He would probably want at the least two extra years within the Premier League to hunt Shearer down and a transfer to Germany would solely reduce his probabilities of doing so sooner or later.
