Man United get Harry Kane boost as Real Madrid do not want to meet demands
In what could be a significant breakthrough for Manchester United, Harry Kane’s potential transfer to Old Trafford has gained momentum, thanks to Real Madrid’s unwillingness to meet Tottenham’s extravagant demands.
The 29-year-old striker, often synonymous with his boyhood club, is rumoured to be seeking a fresh start, with the hope of finally adding a coveted trophy to his currently barren cabinet. He has been linked with a move to Los Blancos and the Red Devils.
Following a blocked move to Manchester City two years ago, Kane demonstrated loyalty to his club, but recent reports suggest that he is now ready to explore new horizons. Real Madrid, a club renowned for their ability to attract world-class talent, emerged as the frontrunner in the race for Kane’s signature.
Under the astute guidance of Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid aimed to further bolster their ranks by adding Kane to their star-studded lineup. However, the latest revelation from AS (h/t Sun) casts doubt on the likelihood of this transfer materialising.
The stumbling block lies in Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy’s unwavering stance on the asking price, which reportedly exceeds £100 million. Despite Kane’s age and contract status, Levy remains steadfast, leaving Real Madrid with no intention of meeting such a figure.
In addition to the lofty transfer fee, Kane’s wage demands of over £17 million per year have also raised eyebrows in the Spanish capital. The combination of a significant fee and substantial wages seems to have prompted Real Madrid to take a step back.
This unexpected turn of events could present an opportunity for Manchester United, who have long been admirers of Kane’s talents. As the Red Devils prepare for a multi-faceted assault on all fronts next season, securing a new number 9 remains a priority.
While Real Madrid’s hesitation may have cleared the path to Manchester United for Harry Kane, negotiations and a potential deal remain complex and challenging. Daniel Levy could in fact make life tougher for the Red Devils considering they are an English club.
