Manchester United's hopes of landing Harry Kane have been boosted by Bayern Munich’s reluctance to get involved in a bidding war for the England captain.
Kane is the No 1 summer target for both United and Bayern as he moves towards the final year of his Tottenham contract.
And while Spurs chairman Daniel Levy would hate to sell his star striker to another Premier League club after keeping Kane out of the clutches of Manchester City two years ago, United’s willingness to come up with the most cash is likely to be the deciding factor.
