I don't understand, weren't there many news saying Kane favors Bayern. Now apparently he has to decide whether to go or not.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
The Bundesliga is not a top title.
Yes I definitely think so. They look very strong across all areas in the starting 11 if they sign Kane and having already signed Kim Min-jae to partner De Ligt.
Think Kane is the perfect striker for them as he'll easily get 30+ and can provide for the likes of Sane and Gnaby also.
I get the impression that we're baulking at the wages more than the transfer fee itself.
If Conte was still there, he'd do a straight Kane for Lukaku swap.
Depending on how he does in Germany. With CR, Messi, Benzema all plying retirement football now, it’s up for grabs.
He might not necessarily be a designated sub, but his minutes should be shared with a more experienced striker for the first year or two in an ideal world. Isak was rotated with Wilson at Newcastle last season having spent big money on him, Darwin Nunez wasn't a guaranteed starter at Liverpool either.
Kane and Hojlund would be great for us because you need more than one avenue of goals if you want to compete for the biggest prizes. As Kane starts to tail off, Hojlund would naturally pick up more and more minutes in his place. That's succession planning.
I'm sure he has quite a lot of flex as a partner beyond just asking politely.
I am shocked we haven't had Merson or Neville come on SSN and say if I was Murtough I would be on the phone to Spurs.
Christ I can just imagine what Talkshite drive will be like later with Bent constantly saying to Goldstein why don't Utd match bid

Because we're a PL rival, the price is obviously higher as Spurs are weakened and we're stronger for it.Explain again why we would have to bid more than the accepted bid
Yes it is but planning we haven't the finances to do
Papers said as much, but there were no photos backing up their claims.
You'd think if she was there house hunting with family, and someone recognises the implication, surely they would quickly snap a photo as proof?
Either way, I feel he’ll stay, which would make Bayern look silly.
Poor Ange...what a mess. 
Because he’s fecked if he suffers a bad injury.
Maybe he is going to keep Levy waiting until deadline day?
What would count as a top club title to you at this point in time besides being PL champion and the CL ?
Poor Ange...what a mess.
He knew what he was getting himself in to?
If he goes to Bayern and breaks Lewa's single-season scoring record, wouldn't that be worth more than Shearer's record which shouldn't really be considered a record?
Well Harry you wanted it sorted before Sunday so have got your wish on that one
Are people seriously still suggesting we match the bid and 'hijack' the deal?
Wake up lads...
Wake up lads...
Yeah some will believe it's still possible
Over to you now Harry. It will be interesting to see how quickly this progresses.
Very now bid has been accepted
Shame he didn't want to play (or didn't push hard to play) for the most iconic club in his own country. What a signing he would have been for United. Shame.
Jesus some of you in this thread really don't have a fecking clue. And watch all of ye moan when the season starts and we go a game without scoring that we didn't sign him even though it's obvious to anyone with a lick of sense that we simply can't afford him.
La Liga and Serie A - by virtue of the fact that we can't carve the name of the winner into the trophy before the season even kicks off.
Spurs are finished without him. It will be a joy to see it. As will be our game against them just after the fallout.
I'm also glad we gave this super premium mess a wide berth. Good decision.

Matching Bayern price would do the trick. We should have waited with Hojlund but what is done is done.
It's a problem for the league really. We need Tottenham to take points off our rivals, not for the distance between the top and the rest get wider.
No it wouldn'tIt's not BS. The scenario you are describing assumes:
A. strong preference for Kane to be at United ( is it really there?),
B. some kind of need for Spurs to be non-discriminatory in accepting bids from different clubs (there is no such requirement either legal or moral. In fact plenty of examples in the past of clubs being unwilling to sell to rivals)
C. Even if Kane was adamant at remaining in England, the ONLY OPTION for Levy is to fold! On the contrary he could also take an equally adamant position depending on his motivation levels to not strenthen a rival. In this case it becomes a game of poker and who knows who wins this.
thats the interesting bit, to see if when the chips are down if he will really wants to make the move. I wonder is Levy gambling in accepting the bid early (for him) to call Kanes bluff and avoid any last minute gazump effort from Utd. By all accounts he is very much a steak and chips guy and could still stay at Spurs.
Yes, it would.
Meh still disagree. Being the all-time PL top scorer separates you more than being a Bundesliga and UCL winner. Which isn't even a guarantee.
Merson has been saying all week he can’t believe we haven’t been in for him which is annoying as for once he’s right. Him saying this though was as predictable as the last statement he came out with…or any statement.
Levy won't accept the same price from a rival. The only thing that *might* change that is if Kane rejects Bayern but wants United then they face the proposition of accepting 100m from us or losing for free.
What part of "he's not for sale to a direct rival" are you struggling to understand?
please don't kill off the transfer muppet that lives in us all.
We'll agree to disagree but I can see your reasoning there, thanks. Serie A is more competitive on the whole but no one there could afford him.
