There won't be a dearth of suitors for Harry Kane

Manchester United also have reportedly been monitoring the situation but will likely have a shortage of funds due to their current financial condition.

Kane is yet to discuss a new contract and the hierarchy will have the risk of losing the players for free. The player is also free to sign a pre-contract agreement with any other clubs in January so Levy needs to take a decision in a fast and prompt manner. Bayern narrowly won the Bundesliga last season and Thomas Tuchel has been on the lookout for a goal-poaching striker. Kane perfectly fits the bill and it remains to be seen how the scenario unfolds in the near future.
