"Harry Kane, we'll see you in June" - Manchester United fans come up with hilarious chant in PL clash against Tottenham
Manchester United fans have come up with a hilarious chant for Harry Kane in their Premier League clash at Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday (April 27).
The England international has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United in the summer. His contract at Spurs expires at the end of next season, but he's yet to pen fresh terms in north London.
Amidst that, Matt Law of the Telegraph has said that the Red Devils have started laying the foundations for a potential summer bid for Kane. Manchester United fans seem to be aware of recent developments surrounding the 29-year-old and their team.
The away fans were heard chanting 'Harry Kane, we'll see you in June' during their league clash against Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (h/t @UtdPlug). The summer transfer window opens for business on July 1.
Manchester United's need for a striker is quite apparent. The club were left needing a centre-forward in January after Cristiano Ronaldo's unceremonious exit in November.
Wout Weghorst is on loan from Burnley till the summer but has failed to impress. Kane, meanwhile, is yet to win silverware. If the Spurs superstar joins the Red Devils, he will continue to have the chance to beat Alan Shearer's Premier League scoring record (260 goals). Kane is on 207.
What Manchester United boss said about Harry Kane?
Erik ten Hag praised Harry Kane before United's high-profile Premier League clash at Tottenham Hotspur.
At his pre-match presser, the Dutch tactician was asked what makes Kane a great striker. He responded (via the Independent):
"First of all, the number of goals. And also his key actions (that) come to a goal, final passes as well. He’s just a great player, great personality as well."
When asked if the Three Lions captain would fit in well at Manchester United, Ten Hag responded:
"I am preparing my team tomorrow for a game against Spurs. He is one of the players, but we have to face Spurs, so I don’t think about anything else."
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is a tough negotiator, especially when his star players are concerned. He could, however, have very little choice if Kane decides not to renew his deal with the Lilywhites.
In that situation, Levy could either sell Kane this summer and use the money to sign a potential replacement. Alternatively, he could wait for another season and come to terms with losing the Englishman on a free transfer.
