Harry Kane set for crunch Tottenham talks after huge new contract offer
arry Kane will hold talks with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy and head coach Ange Postecoglou when he reports for pre-season training next week, with the club still hoping to persuade the England captain to sign a massive new contract.
Spurs have offered Kane a new deal which would significantly increase his £200,000-a-week salary but he has no plans to sign it while the transfer window remains open.
The England captain has entered the final 12 months of a six-year contract and is a target for Bayern Munich, who have had an opening offer in the region of £60million rejected.
Kane, 30 this month, is open to leaving Spurs during the window or on a free transfer at the end of next season, but has not ruled out extending his contract with his boyhood club – even if this is currently considered the least likely scenario.

Spurs do not want to sell their talisman but would be forced to listen to a huge offer, likely in excess of £100m, from an overseas club.
Levy hopes to persuade Kane to sign another deal and is banking on Postecoglou turning around the club’s fortunes after a miserable campaign, culminating in an eighth-place finish and no European football for the first time since 2009/10.
Kane is yet to meet Postecoglou but is expected to hold crunch talks with the Australian – who began pre-season training with the club’s non-internationals on July 1 – and Levy when he returns to Hotspur Way next week.
