European giants reportedly want Spurs star to replace one of £365m duo – originally posted on Sportslens.com
According to The Mirror, Paris Saint-Germain have made Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane their No.1 target if Kylian Mbappe or Neymar makes a summer transfer exit. PSG manager Mauricio Pochettino is aware that the duo could decide to leave Parc des Princes when the next window opens, with the £165 million Frenchman linked with Real Madrid, while £200 million Brazilian could be on his way back to Barcelona depending on who becomes the club’s next president. Missing the goals of either will deal a huge blow on the European giants, and the Argentine believes a perfect replacement can be found in Kane.
The Tottenham star has 156 goals in 228 Premier League games for the North London side and has remained in contact with the PSG boss. Kane, 27, wants to win silverware, and he might have to leave Spurs to have a realistic chance of doing so given their barren run. Winning the Ligue 1 and Champions League are within reach at PSG, and while the England international could be tempted to move should one of their star forwards leave, Tottenham have slapped a £150million valuation on him to shoo off suitors.
Given their financial might, the French giants are capable of parting with that amount despite the situations of things at the moment, and it will be interesting to see how things go in the coming months.
