Before we start, let me answer your questions. Yes, this is an article centered around Harry Kane. Yes, he plays for Tottenham. Yes, you were promised that Tottenham would never be mentioned in this blog.
However, this is current news. You always have to go where the story takes you, even if it is to Tottenham.
Anyway, here is a brief background about the Harry Kane situation and why this article had to be written.
- Towards the back end of the 2020/21 Premier League season, rumours began to circulate that Tottenham striker Harry Kane wanted to leave.
- It was reported that Kane had become frustrated with Tottenham’s lack of competitiveness. He wanted a move to a club competing for trophies.
- It was reported that Manchester City, Manchester United, and Chelsea were all interested in acquiring his services.
- Fast forward a few weeks to the European Championships. It was reported by a reliable source that Manchester City had made a bid of £100m to Tottenham for Kane. It was rejected. Apparently, Tottenham wants a £150m.
- Now, fast forward again to last week, when it was reported that Harry Kane had not reported back from his summer break. He was supposed to return for pre-season training, but he had not shown up.
