Tottenham host Manchester City in the Premier League this afternoon meaning Harry Kane will once again come up against the team he reportedly came close to joining in 2021.
The striker made his feelings known to seal a move away from north London following the 2020/21 campaign, but an agreement over his sale was never sealed. It was said that Kane and Spurs chairman Daniel Levy had a 'gentlemen's agreement' to allow him to leave the club, resulting in Kane missing Spurs’ 1-0 win over City.
Tottenham stood firm in their stance of keeping hold of the forward, despite reports that the Citizens were keen to accelerate their move for Kane. Amid all the controversy involving the England international, former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane called for Kane to focus on his football rather than skipping training.
