Harry Kane asks to leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer

With 22 goals and 13 assists in the Premier League, Harry Kane is the highest scorer and the highest assister in the Premier League. According to various sources that include Sky Sports and the Telegraph, the England captain has asked to leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer. 

The striker has informed the club of his decision and expects his future to be sorted out before Euro 2020, which is about a month away. 

Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City are all in talks with the player’s representatives. Kane has reportedly asked his agents to arrange for a move in England since he does not want to move abroad. 

Despite Kane’s numbers skyrocketing, the best that Tottenham can offer him next season is Europa League football. That was the case this season as well, and they crashed out of the league in a rather humiliating fashion, bottling their lead against Dinamo Zagreb. 

Tottenham has asked for replacements for the 27-year-old, which is the best indicator that they plan for next season without the striker. While Daniel Levy is a difficult character to deal with from a business perspective, Kane’s desire to leave could force Spurs to accept a lower bid for the player than they would’ve liked. 

Kane clearly deserves to compete for silverware every season, given his talent and ability to win matches independently. At 27, his trophy cabinet is empty, and a move to either one of Chelsea, United or City could prove to be exactly what he needs to accumulate some well-deserved trophies to mark his career as an undisputed success.
