Where will Harry Kane play this season?
This is one of the burning questions of this transfer window.
Open secret for a few months now, with the free start of Aguero, Manchester City would like to attract in their nets the best English n ° 9 in recent years.
However, many obstacles stand in the way of this transfer, which the England international is obviously ready to force since he did not show up for training on Monday morning on his return from vacation.
A giant without a title
Trained at the club, Harry Kane begins to find the time long at Spurs. Triple top scorer in the Premier League and unanimously recognized as one of the best strikers in the world, the England captain has still not won anything collectively. Past very close to the Euro but also the Champions League (final in 2019), Harry Kane sees the trophies flee him tirelessly and no doubt that the past season has confirmed his desire to go elsewhere. José Mourinho, the man who is supposed to glean trophies wherever he goes, has not made it with Tottenham and the arrival on the bench of Nuno Espirito Santo, whose best result as a coach is a Cup final of the Portugal, should not reassure Prince Harry in his quest for titles. Santo, meanwhile,logically affirmed his wish to see Kane stay with a very clear "
He's our player, period
”.
Beyond not winning titles, if Harry Kane wants to take the tangent, it is also because since the European final lost against Liverpool two years ago, Tottenham is regressing and relying on the duo he forms with Son Heung-Min.
A dependency that ended up affecting the overall performance of the entire team.
Top scorer but also best passer in the Premier League (24 goals - 10 assists), the number 10 of Spurs could not prevent his team from finishing in a sad 7th place, far from the ambitions of the club.
Harry Kane has arguably outgrown Tottenham and is now looking for a club that can help quench his thirst for trophies.

City wants Kane, Kane wants City but ...
It has now been months since the Spurs captain has been sent to Manchester City, transformed by Guardiola into a trophy-winning machine. However, the England international faces several major challenges to join the SkyBlues. First, the reluctance of its president to sell it. As we know, Daniel Levy is not in the habit of selling off his players and even less when it comes to one of the very best in the world of football. With another 3 years of contract with Spurs, Kane is not in a strong position to negotiate his transfer. What's more, the Premier League's top scorer also has to contend with Manchester City's financial “limits”.
For this transfer window, the Skyblues are thinking big on this transfer market and maybe a little too much. Indeed, the Mancunians would be very close to afford Jack Grealish for more than 100 million euros. A transfer that would strongly compromise that of Harry Kane to the Etihad Stadium, the price of which is announced at more than 120 million euros across the Channel. However, Manchester City could be tempted to downsize and a possible departure of Bernardo Silva could unblock the situation. For a few weeks, the Portuguese has been announced leaving, eager to join Spain, but his price and his salary seem to put off the few clubs ready to welcome him.
Expected this Monday for his return from vacation but also to discuss his future with Levy, Harry Kane did not show up for training according to
Sky Sports
.
Obviously decided to leave the club, the English striker therefore seems ready to go to the arm wrestle to force his transfer. The Kane soap opera is therefore not about to end and will keep us going all summer long.
