Tottenham rejected Manchester City’s bid for Kane
It turns out the Harry Kane transfer saga began a little earlier than previously thought.
Manchester City reportedly made an inquiry for the striker in January. Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy, however, quickly rebuffed them. But with Kane set to seek a summer exit, he may have to change his stance – especially if bids of over £100 million arrive at his doorstep.
Fellow Premier League sides Chelsea and Manchester United are also interested. [Daily Star]
