Manchester United are no strangers to long-running transfer sagas and a potential pursuit of Harry Kane this summer could be another for the list.
Erik ten Hag's side are monitoring Kane's situation at Tottenham, with the striker inside the final 18 months of his deal and potentially eyeing a move away. Last Sunday, the 29-year-old netted for the 267th time in the white of Spurs, surpassing Jimmy Greaves' record to become the club's all-time top goalscorer. And with that milestone reached, one would think a hunt for silverware was next on the to-do list.
That silverware may well come at Tottenham but it is much more likely to come elsewhere, with United hopeful a world-class forward would provide the final piece of the jigsaw in their own pursuit of glory. Ten Hag signed Wout Weghorst on loan from Burnley in January, the 30-year-old leading the line in M16 for the remainder of the season. But that is expected to be little more than a stop-gap, and summer has been bookmarked for a more permanent solution.
