Daniel Levy is aware that should he allow Kane to leave this summer, his popularity among fans will plummet. The club will also be in a very difficult position as they attempt to replace him, as he has scored more than 20 goals in every single season for the last nine years. His best return for Spurs was the 2017/18 campaign, which saw him tally a whopping 41 goals across all competitions.
Thomas Tuchel is said to be pushing hard to sign Kane this summer and Bayern Munich have reportedly ‘been talking to Kane behind his back for a long time.’ That’s according to German outlet SPORT BILD, who claim that these revelations have left Levy ‘really angry’ with the Bundesliga giants and he has made this clear to his circle of friends.
Having already turned down €70 million (£60m) from Bayern for Kane, Levy’s current emotions have now reportedly led him to want to immediately shut down a revised €100 million (£86m) offer.
Spurs offer huge new terms for Kane
In their desperate attempt to keep Kane content in North London, Spurs have tabled a huge new contract offer which would significantly improve his current £200,000 per week wages, according to The Guardian.

This suggests he is keeping his options at arms length right now, so he can assess the best possible route for himself moving forward. However, Levy believes Kane will soon come to realise that his future lies with Tottenham.
