KANE WANTS TO JOIN ELITE

According to an inside source at Tottenham Hotspur, captain Harry Kane is working on a summer exit, with the England international keen to move on to a top-level club to match his ambition to win the Champion's League and the Ballon D'Or.

Spurs have been very poor this year. They were knocked out of the champions league by RB Leipzig. The German were superior to Jose Mourinho 's side, as they won 4-0 over two legs. Tottenham are 8th in the league, seven points behind Chelsea in fourth place and qualification to next season's Champions League is looking unlikely.

Kane has enjoyed personal development since breaking into the first team 4 years ago. He has won two Golden Boots in the Premier League. He was also the top scorer at the last World cup in Russia - if you'd have backed him on https://www.bettingsider24.com at the start of the tournament you would have made a lot of money! But the lack of team silverware is beginning to be a concern for the England international, and he is expected to look at moving on if the team fail to qualify for Eurpe's premier football competition.

It was reported last week that the England captain is considering his future with his boyhood club. He is frustrated at lack of improvement in the squad. Last season's Champions League Final loss against Liverpool is another heartbreak that Kane has not gotten over - whilst rival Sadio Mane was tipped for the Ballon D'Or, Kane was nowhere near the top of the listings.

Manchester United signed Odion Ighalo on a six-month loan deal. According to reports, the Red Devils will not sign the former Nigerian international on a permanent deal, as they see the deal to bring Ighalo as a quick fix to their striking problems. They will try to sign the Spurs captain in the summer to fill the void left by Romelu Lukaku, who left to join Inter Milan last summer.

Manchester City have also identified the England captain as the long-term replacement for Sergio Aguero. The Cityzens have Gabriel Jesus, and the Brazilian was seen to be the natural replacement for Aguero, but he has failed to reach the height expected of him. Kane has endured an injury hit season and according to a report he has instructed his representative to look for other alternatives.
