If Bayern are serious about getting Kane, they can’t possibly think €80m would be enough. I don’t think Levy will even think about anything less than 90m pounds. If Bayern are unwilling to go up, then Kane surely stays.
I’m torn on whether Levy is right here. It seems crazy to let Kane go for free next summer when they can get this much money for him now. But I can’t see what proven PL or equivalent striker Spurs would be able to sign behind him, especially with no European football on offer.
I imagine Levy’s gamble is that Champions League qualification is worth more (the pure revenue plus whatever value Spurs put on the ability to attract better players) than what they’re being offered for Kane now, and that finishing outside the top 4 for the fourth time in five years would pose more fundamental problems for their footballing and financial outlook - so they might as well hold Kane now and roll the dice for a top 4 finish.
Levy might be correct in this instance especially from a financial point of view, but didn’t he promise Harry kane that he could leave like three seasons ago, and then went back on his word?
Why Harry hasn’t kicked off/protested more is beyond me, he’s a world class striker at a mediocre club that is only going backwards. The dude should have left when pochettino did.
Full disclosure: As a Bayern fan, I’d love to see Kane with us, but I think there has to be a limit on the outgoing spend. The striker market is just broken right now.

Well I hope Spurs enjoy seeing him in a United kit. Levy’s going to end up shooting Spurs in the foot.

Striker market is broken, market for English players is broken, and market for PL players is broken - and Kane ticks all three boxes.
