Manchester United are not expected to sign Harry Kane this summer due to the threat of long and tedious transfer negotiations.
Tottenham chief Daniel Levy is a tough negotiator and will not sell Kane, who turns 30 next month, on the cheap. United want to complete their signings early in the window after spending most of last summer trying to land Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong.
United need a new striker after allowing Cristiano Ronaldo to leave the Old Trafford in November. Erik ten Hag signed Wout Weghorst on loan in January, but the Netherlands international has now returned to parent club Burnley and will not re-join United.
