For the moment, it is unclear whether United will be able—or willing—to enter into a bidding war over the 29-year-old as their ownership situation remains very unclear. Spurs’ asking price is reported to be £88 million, which would not fall out of line with United’s summer spending from 2022.
However, Ten Hag appears to have a “secret weapon” up his sleeve.
The future of Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris continues to be a hot topic for debate, with rumours growing that he may be replaced this summer, according to reports from Football.London, Spurs are interested in United man Dean Henderson as a replacement for the Frenchman.
Should United add Henderson to their proposed deal for Kane, it may be too good for Daniel Levy to turn down despite his reservations about selling to a fellow Premier League side, as it would provide a simple solution to one of Spurs’ most significant problems. As Kane could be such a transformative player for the Red Devils, it is safe to say that Ten Hag has to use this secret weapon to give his side a leg up on the competition while the Harry Kane transfer saga continues to develop.
