Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has reportedly agreed to let Harry Kane join Manchester City this summer for a record breaking £160 million.
Cityzens have been looking for a proper striker in the market after the departure of Sergio Aguero and Kane was reported to be the club’s number one target.
News emerged on Friday morning claiming that Levy revealed his u-turn to Kane’s representatives while the Tottenham forward was best man at his brother and agent's wedding, with a source telling
the Sun:
“Harry is delighted. He never wanted to leave on bad terms.”
“A contract with Man City has not yet been signed but this is Harry’s preference. Terms have provisionally been agreed, it’s an incredible deal. It’s just a case of dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. This is a brilliant signing for both parties.”
However, the transfer is yet to be completed, with the England skipper having
“shaken hands on a £400,000-a-week deal."
The report continued, saying, “Daniel Levy is a canny operator though and after Harry’s brilliant efforts and goals at the Euros his value has never been higher. By waiting until now, he has probably put another £20million or so on his price tag. A contract with Man City has not yet been signed but this is Harry’s preference.
"It is also preferable from Spurs’ viewpoint. They do not want to lose him to another London side. Terms have provisionally been agreed, and it’s an incredible deal. It’s now just a case of dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. Harry is in the pomp of his career, and wants to win trophies. This is a brilliant signing for both parties.”
In addition to the report, one of Manchester City's English players that represented the club within Gareth Southgate's squad over the summer had been giving Kane advice on where to live in the North West.
