Manchester United make Harry Kane the top priority for summer 2023

Manchester United are seriously considering a transfer for Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane this summer. 

The England captain’s deal with Spurs runs out in 2024, and if they cannot finish in the Champions League places this year, he could push for an exit. Based on reports, the price tag for him could start at £85 million at the very least. 

Harry Kane one of the top targets for Manchester United 

United officials are exploring ways to go about the deal, while the player himself is open to the move. Erik Ten Hag’s side have signed Wout Weghorst during the winter transfer window as a temporary solution to their striker problems. And as things stand, there is no option to buy him. 

In the summer, Harry Kane could arrive as a potential solution to their striker role. Anthony Martial is the only other natural option that is there in the squad, but his injury record has prevented him from being available regularly. 

While there is interest from Bayern Munich and Real Madrid as well, the striker prefers to stay in England. Moreover, Bayern are not willing to match the asking price that Spurs are asking for their talisman. Part of the reason behind his desire to stay in the English top flight is due to his ambition to surpass Alan Shearer in the Premier League, who remains 62 goals ahead of him. 

Napoli’s Victor Osimhen and RB Salzburg striker Benjamin Sesko are the two other options on the table for the club. But as things stand, Kane is the top priority for them.
