Paper Talk: Levy relents to Harry Kane exit wish with unique offer to sell Spurs star abroad

Daniel Levy appears ready to sell Harry Kane amid claims he is offering him to one overseas club, Newcastle are closing in on an eye-catching deal, while Thursday’s transfer gossip has given Manchester United hope over a deal for Erling Haaland.

HARRY KANE OFFERED TO REAL MADRID

Daniel Levy is preparing to allow Harry Kane to leave Tottenham in January – but wants the striker to sign for Real Madrid only.

The Spurs talisman has endured a difficult season at club level. He has just one goal and one assist from 13 Premier League appearances so far – way down on his usual levels.

Given he was the subject of two big-money approaches from Manchester City over the summer, it’s easy to see why Kane is so unsettled.

Ultimately, he pledged his loyalty to Spurs – but it’s clear to see that all is not well for the usually-reliable goalgetter.

Now, as per El Nacional, Levy is finally ready to grant Kane his exit wish.

However, rather than strengthen an English rival, Levy will grant Kane the chance to move to Real Madrid.

Los Blancos are looking for a new striker, having been linked with Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe.

But the chance to sign Kane could very much appeal to president Florentino Perez.
