Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has put his future up in the air and as many as three major Premier League sides are keen to have him on board for the next season.
In a recent interview with Gary Neville, the forward explained how he wanted to fight for trophies and this was immediately taken as a hint that he wants to head out this summer. And Manchester United, Chelsea and Man City are the three most likely destinations for the forward.
Up until now, Manchester City were one of the favourites to land the 27-year-old since they are actively looking for a replacement Sergio Aguero but according to Gianluca Di Marzio, Chelsea have also shown a strong inclination in signing Kane.
He wrote: “The Tottenham forward expressed his intention to say goodbye at the end of the season.
“An intention that, moreover, contributed to making Conte hesitate whether or not to accept the Spurs bench. But in the meantime the management has changed, and Paratici is arriving from Italy. His first goal? To make sure that, at least for another year, Harry stays at Tottenham, despite the fact that Chelsea are very insistent.
“For Abramovich, the priority is in fact to Kane more than to Haaland (more difficult to deal with). 70 million euros ready to be spent: Tottenham would be very convenient, and Tuchel would need a striker like that.”
Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is eager to bring in attacking reinforcements this summer and Harry Kane will be a much better upgrade than the misfiring Timo Werner.
The Blues are also being linked with Lukaku and Erling Haaland but Harry Kane will perhaps be the safest bet since he has been playing in the Premier League all his life. During his senior time at Spurs, the striker has scored 221 goals in 336 games.

But signing the striker will not be a walk in the park since Manchester City and Man United will also go all out to sign Harry Kane as well.
The two Manchester clubs have the ability to meet Daniel Levy’s asking price so Chelsea will have to first convince the player that they will be the right team for him for the next couple of seasons.
Levy wants around 150 million pounds for the sale of Harry Kane and since he has three more years left on his current deal so Spurs are not about to hand out a hefty discount. So all three clubs will have to put their hands deep into their pockets if they want to secure this transfer.
Kane obviously wants to play for a club where he can win trophies so Man City and Chelsea will be the two safest bets. But Manchester United have also been growing in leaps and bounds.
