Tottenham
Hotspur will resist any bids for Harry Kane this summer. The
21-year-old is one of the most highly rated forwards in the Premier
League after his goalscoring exploits this season.
Kane has
scored 30 goals for the club and he took just 79 seconds to find the net
on his England debut against Lithuania in March, after coming on as a
substitute.
Manchester United have been linked
with a move for the Tottenham academy graduate, but the London club are
understood not interested in selling the player.
Kane signed a
five-and-a-half-year deal in February and there is no sign that the
player himself or Tottenham are ready to part ways.
United
underlined their willingness to spend on Thursday when their executive
vice-chairman, Ed Woodward, told investors that the club would be active
in the transfer market this summer.
Louis van Gaal has spent
more than £150m on seven new signings since he was appointed manager,
but United’s £750m kit deal with Adidas means the Dutchman has money to
spend this summer.
United have already signed Memphis Depay from PSV Eindhoven for £25m and they are also in the market for a dynamic midfielder.
They
need reinforcements up front after a poor collective showing from their
strikers this season and additions are also required in defence.
United
are understood to be interested in signing Gareth Bale from Real Madrid
if he becomes available but sources close to the player insist the
Welshman is going nowhere despite his indifferent form for the Spanish
giants.
