Report: How Levy is feeling right now after holding transfer talks with £150m star – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Tottenham Hotspur are confident that Harry Kane will stay at the club beyond the summer transfer window.
The Sun dropped a clanger earlier this week that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy had accepted a £160 million offer from City for the England captain.
Kane, who said to Gary Neville in May that he would hold talks with Levy over his future, has already stated his desire that he would like to leave this summer.
Spurs are unlikely to block a move for him, considering what he has done for the club. However, each player has a price, and City will have to come up with a better offer.
City have already made an offer of £100m for the 27-year-old striker, which was rejected immediately.
Kane has three years remaining on his current deal, and something closer to £150 million could convince Levy to listen to offers.
According to reports from The Athletic, Spurs have reiterated that the player is not for sale. Fabio Paratici is confident that Kane will not be sold this summer, and it was echoed by Nuno Espirito Santo in his unveiling press conference last week.
The report claim that Levy is more determined than ever to keep hold of the Tottenham striker. A discussion has taken place with Kane, where he was conveyed that the club expect him to remain as a Spurs player.
City spent £65.2m to sign Ruben Dias last summer. He is the club’s record signing, and City will not go as high as £160m for Kane.
The Premier League champions still retain an interest in him but they are not prepared to match the numbers quoted in the media.
City are also keen to sign Jack Grealish from Aston Villa. Like Spurs, Villa are also reluctant to sell their prized asset and they have slapped a massive £100m price-tag on his shoulders.
In fact, Villa are planning to offer him a £200k-per-week deal which will make him one of the highest-earning players in the Premier League.
