We have to get him. Just swoop in and land him.
I don't think Bayern pay those sorts of wages.
How on earth is that relevant to what I wrote?
But that's not what we are talking about, 70m for kane for one season with no possibility to sell, Vs 70m for a player for 5 ish years with opportunities to sell.
No. Look where Arsenal came from the year before to end up only 6 points off the title despite collapsing in the last few weeks. It merely shows what is possible.Arsenal probably won't have a season like that for quite a long while, and they still finished 6 points off winning nothing. Maybe by your logic he should join Arsenal? I don't think any English team aside from City have a shot at a top title unless Liverpool bounce back hard.
I said on here previously that when Kane would have 1 year on his contract, Levy would use the 100m that Real paid for Hazard in a similar scenario as a benchmark - I think that's his thinking.If Bayern really offered 70 million, I struggle to understand Levy's thinking. Kane is 30.
Leaving aside the fact that he has only a year left on his contract (which is also huge), surely getting that sort of money for a player entering the twilight of his career is a coup.
I'd imagine £70m but Levy will benchmark Kane against Hazard when he moved to Real (similar situation: top class player with one year left on contract) so he'll look for over £100m.
The thing is that Levy hates us with a passion ever since the Berbatov/Carrick deals. Were it not for the fan backlash he'd probably prefer to sell Kane to Arse/Chelsea than us.
But there is always going to be a team that has a good season, mathematically that's going to happen. With so many teams doing poorly, someone has to do well.No. Look where Arsenal came from the year before to end up only 6 points off the title despite collapsing in the last few weeks.

If Kane does go to Arsenal that would certainly take them up a notch but given the other signings we’re making in this window, there’s no reason to doubt that, with Kane, we can do better than Arsenal did last year.
If he wants the best chance of winning the Prem he should go to City but that’s probably not an option for him.
And they also don't have the Ronaldo/Neymar outliners on truly insane numbers. But their wage bill is constantly one of the top ones in football.They do, they just don’t give massive wages to dross like we do.
No problem.How is it 70 million for one season when you get many more than 1 season.
Edit, nevermind, i didn't read the context. Apologies.
Fair enough, these wages just never got to me.And they also don't have the Ronaldo/Neymar outliners on truly insane numbers. But their wage bill is constantly one of the top ones in football.
Sorry I thought you meant in general (during their contract) and not in the final year, that’s why I asked if it was illegal. If it’s within the rules then fine. Is it 1 year for non epl clubs, and 6 month for epl clubs?I don't understand how the one thing has anything to do with the other. There's also a bunch of players moving between top-clubs after the contract runs out. We lost Alaba to Real for free for instance.
If a player and a club agree on a 5 year contract - what right does the club have to get mad when the contract runs out? That is literally the whole point of the agreement.if United would now negotiate with Kane and agree on signing him next year - what is unethical about it? Both Kane and Tottenham fulfilled their obligation.
No club has an inherent right to sell a player. A transfer fee is just a compensation for the club to let a player go before the end of the contract length.
So no, I don't think it should be illegal for a club to contact and negotiate with players from other clubs in the final contract year. I don't consider it as unethical or unfair to anyone involved.
The Super League is an entirely different thing. My feeling is it won't happen but the Champions League will be reformed to essnetially replace the Super League, but we definitely need a longer international league or else it will be tough for other international clubs outside of the Premier League to remain relevant
Well, players don't sign for the beauty of Munich and the privilege to play in the Bundesliga alone.Fair enough, these wages just never got to me.

That’s the spiritWe are not winning a major trophy, with or without him. He would waste the end of his career.
I like to be a realist and make professional decisions that was rather than making decisions on hope.That’s the spirit
Why would Kane want to sit on City bench? He would be a starter in nearly any other club in the worldIf he wants the best chance of winning the Prem he should go to City but that’s probably not an option for him.
There's nothing to hijack, Spurs are asking £120m, noway Bayern pay that.Hijack this deal, c'mon Murtough!
We won't because Levy won't sell to us. We can swoop all we want, even perch if necessary but if he's leaving he's going abroad, just like Bale and Modric did.We have to get him. Just swoop in and land him.

Well he 100% isn’t joining us, that’s for sureNah, he's not.
This is not an auction. What part of Levi not wanting to sell to us do you not understand?They will settle at 70 and then we hijack with 75?
You’ve never seen Levy negotiate with a player he doesn’t want to leave have you?They will settle at 70 and then we hijack with 75?
He will go to Bayern - Levy is a cnut but hes not stupid
I still have a sneaky feeling that the takeover gets done and this will be their statement signing.
CONFIRMED
He's joining Bayern on a four year deal.
100 and we might have a chance.They will settle at 70 and then we hijack with 75?
Yeah, of Levy rejected the other himself, anything lower goes to his PA. I don't think Kane moves for less than £120m, I can see him signing a new deal too.100 and we might have a chance.
Wait till the last week of Aug. We'll see.Yeah, of Levy rejected the other himself, anything lower goes to his PA. I don't think Kane moves for less than £120m, I can see him signing a new deal too.
