Manchester United are to launch their mega move for Tottenham Hotspur hero Harry Kane within the coming days, capitalising on the misery on the white side of north London.
Tottenham went into a showdown with Newcastle United at the weekend needing a win to keep their Champions League hopes alive, but were duly battered 6-1, conceding three in the first 20 minutes. Captain Hugo Lloris was substituted at half-time, with Pape Sarr hooked on 22 minutes for another defender in Davinson Sanchez.
The 29-year-old is said to be valued at £100 million by sources in the report but only has a year left on his current contract. With plenty of need to rebuild the side, they may be tempted to cash in now and use the money on a much-needed overhaul.
United, meanwhile, have Kane top of their list, according to rumours, with the likes of Victor Osimhen, Goncalo Ramos and Evan Ferguson all linked with moves to Old Trafford.
