PSG, Manchester ... Kane will take his time
Despite a contract that runs until 2024, Harry Kane could go elsewhere than Tottenham this summer.
Spurs, 6th in the Premier League and in crisis after their elimination by Dinamo Zagreb in the Europa League, are not sure to see the Champions League again next season.
In such a scenario, the
Daily Mail
believes that the hypothesis of a departure of the English striker (27) will gain momentum.
Last month, the
Daily Mirror
claimed that Mauricio Pochettino, who coached Tottenham between 2014 and 2019, whispered his name to the management of Paris Saint-Germain.
According to the
, PSG is its main courtier with Manchester United and Manchester City.
The two rival clubs would make Erling Haaland, announced in many transfer rumors from Dortmund's side, a priority in attack.
But Kane, whose price would also exceed the 100 M € mark, would be a second choice option.
"I'm fully focused on the job to be done on the pitch until the end of the summer and we'll see then," Kane, England captain, warned at a press conference.
Its future should not be sealed before the Euro, from June 11 to July 11.

Chelsea: Werner sold to buy Haaland?
Speculation never stops for long with Erling Haaland.
On Saturday,
ESPN
revealed that Borussia Dortmund were raising the stakes to € 180m for their star striker.
In addition to the two Manchester clubs (see above), FC Barcelona, Real Madrid and Chelsea make him sweet eyes.
To facilitate the transfer of the 20-year-old Norwegian, Thomas Tuchel submitted the idea to his leaders to sell Timo Werner, according to the Catalan daily
Sport
and relayed by the
Daily Express
.
Werner (25) was signed for € 53m in Leipzig last summer, but whether under Frank Lampard or Tuchel he is not unanimous at Chelsea.
It remains to be seen whether a direct trade to Haaland, in addition to a big check from the Blues, would work out for Dortmund.
Real Madrid: Gareth Bale is no longer welcome
The English and Spanish press were surprised by Gareth Bale's words earlier this week.
The striker on loan at Tottenham, where he regained some semblance of form in 2021, said his "plan was to return" to Real Madrid at the end of the season.
The Welshman (31) still has a year of contract with the Merengue, where his injuries coupled with his disagreement with Zinédine Zidane have made him an outcast.
At the microphone of
ESPN
, the agent of Gareth Bale calmed the game by judging "too early" any decision on his future.
Anyway, according to
Marca
, "if Real Madrid have a plan for Bale this season, it involves the idea of offloading his salary to € 30m per year".
The Welshman remains under contract with Real until June 2022.

Manchester City frozen overtime for Sterling
Holder in the steamroller that is Manchester City this season, Raheem Sterling has been negotiating a contract extension for nearly 3 months.
But the
Daily Star
informs that the discussions are at a standstill.
The reason ?
The English striker (26) separated from his historic agent, Aidy Ward, barely 2 months ago.
Neither Sterling nor Manchester City are said to be rushing to strike a deal, but optimism will remain on both sides.
At the club since 2015, Sterling has been linked with the Skyblues until 2023.
Todibo would rather play Sedan than be a Barca replacement
Canted to the bench at FC Barcelona, which he joined from Toulouse in January 2019, Jean-Clair Todibo is reborn at OGC Nice.
His loan to Schalke 04 last season did not revive him, let alone that to Benfica in the first part of the 2020-21 season, where he only played two small matches.
Barça therefore sent him to Nice last January, where the French central defender (21) is an indisputable holder.
“It sucks to go to Barcelona and not play, judged Todibo in an interview with our colleagues from
L'Équipe
.
I would rather wear the Sedan jersey and play rather than go to Barcelona and not play. ”
If he took the example of the National 2 club at random, Todibo emphasizes that he “did not help the team” to win La Liga in 2019, which is nevertheless in his record.
Without going too far on his future, the Niçois insists on the importance of playing time for his next destination.
Who could be Nice, on loan or in permanent transfer, depending on what Barça is considering where he remains under contract until 2024.
