Although the new manpower manager has not yet been finally revealed, they have already begun to prepare for next season's reinforcement. According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United hope to recruit British star Harry Kane this summer, and as part of the deal, French striker Anthony Martial will be sent to White Hart Lane. The latter joined Sevilla on loan in the winter window of the season, but so far the King of the Europa League has not meant any buyouts.
This summer, Uruguayan centre-forward Cavani's contract with Manchester United expired, Greenwood was in prison and his return was far from being expected, and United lacked a heavyweight in the center position. Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has proven to be effective in playing single arrows, and he needs a forward partner who can send him a pass and open up space, such as Benzema in the previous Real Madrid era. The British emperor star Harry Kane is also very in line with the needs of C Ronaldo in terms of technical characteristics.
This season, Kane has experienced a relatively dismal start, but in recent times, he has performed better and better, and in a key match with the fourth opponent West Ham United, he assisted and showed his all-round performance twice. In the two matches on the international break, Kane also scored 1 goal, and the gap with England's all-time top scorer Rooney narrowed to 4 goals, surpassing just around the corner. If he can join Manchester United, it will be enough to activate Ronaldo with passing and running, and even if the latter leaves the team when his contract expires, Kane can continue to destroy the city in the front.
However, it's not easy to sign Kane. Last summer, City repeatedly asked for a sky-high price of up to 150 million pounds + floating bonuses, but it was still ignored by Tottenham Chairman Levi. Even if he breathes a sigh of relief, United will have to pay at least a transfer fee of hundreds of millions of pounds. So in this case, the wealthy United also began to consider adding Martial to the transaction to reduce the cost of buying Kane.
After joining Sevilla on loan in the winter window this season, Martial only delivered 1 goal and 1 assist in 8 games, and his performance did not meet expectations. In the 29th round of La Liga, Sevilla played real sociedad at home and he was replaced after playing for less than an hour. Marca said that Martial was very unhappy with the manager's early replacement of him, but it also showed that he was not fully integrated into Sevilla's tactical system. But even so, the French striker has no intention of returning to Manchester United, with Juve being his potential next home. However, the weekly salary estimate of 250,000 pounds will make the Serie A giants unbearable.
So in this case, if United use him as part of the bargaining chip to buy Kane, Martial is still willing to accept. After all, Tottenham is coached by the famous coach Conte, who still has a lot of experience in the central striker's adjustment of the Italian iron coach, and Lukaku, who was depressed at Manchester United, has re-erupted under him, which should give Martial more confidence. In addition, although the performance of the past two seasons has been sluggish, Martial is only 26 years old after all, and if he is well adjusted, there is still a possibility of returning to the peak. At that time, it is not a luxury to resell To Manchester United for 100 million like Lukaku.
In addition, it must be mentioned that although the offer from Manchester City was dismissed last summer, if the buyer was Manchester United, Levy's attitude might be different. Because the relationship between Tottenham and Manchester United is relatively good. If United show enough sincerity, levi is still very likely to relax, after all, this season is the only opportunity to sell Kane for a high price.
