Man City To Increase Bid For Harry Kane After Englishman Lashes Out On Tottenham Owner

And so, the Harry Kane saga continues.

Manchester City is expected to increase its bid for the disgruntled Tottenham striker after the club declined its initial approach of £100 million ($138.5 million).

Tottenham and Kane have been at each other’s throats for the better part of the summer transfer window.

Kane is of the belief that team chairman Daniel Levy broke his promise of allowing the England national team captain to leave the club this summer, and Levy has been disappointed in his striker for not reporting to the team.

It was claimed by Kane’s camp that he would be allowed to leave Tottenham if the club did not win a trophy or at least qualify for the UEFA Champions League last season.

Even if Kane has his heart set on a move to Manchester City, he has reportedly informed his home club that they can expect him to be available to play.

None of that happened for Tottenham, and with Manchester City waiting in the wings, Levy will have some tough decisions to make.

It is very much expected that Levy will understandably continue to drag the Kane saga by holding fast to his asking price of £160 million ($221.6 million) for his most prized player.

The English national team captain has three years left on his current deal after signing a five-year extension with the club in 2018.

As much as Kane wants the move to Manchester City to happen as soon as possible, the club may walk away from a Kane bid forever if they cannot come to terms this month.

There are a lot of moving pieces in the potential deal and it all starts with whether Levy will ever allow Kane to leave or not.

Ironically, Tottenham started its season off on a high note as the Spurs were able to upset Manchester City last weekend with a one-goal victory thanks to Son Heung-min.
