Manchester United will not get involved in a transfer tug-of-war for Tottenham star Harry Kane if they cannot sign him before the start of next season.
The 29-year-old has just over a year left on his current Spurs contract and could be allowed to depart this summer with Erik ten Hag keen to add a world-class striker to his United squad.
It is thought that Kane is United's no.1 transfer target but the Red Devils will not be dragged into a transfer tussle should Daniel Levy play hardball for the forward's signature.
