Tottenham can block Harry Kane to Man Utd transfer if they appoint one of two managers

Tottenham Hotspur could block a potential move for Harry Kane to Manchester United if they appoint either of two potential new managers according to reports.

The England captain’s future at Spurs has been the subject of much speculation in recent weeks with United reportedly keen on signing him this summer.

But a report in the Daily Star claims that Tottenham are hoping to appoint either of two potential managers in order to keep Kane at the club.

The first option is former Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri, who has been out of work since leaving the Italian giants in 2019. Allegri is considered one of the best managers in Europe and has been linked with several of the top clubs in Europe.

The second option is German manager Ralf Rangnick, who is currently at Red Bull Salzburg. Rangnick is seen as one of the most progressive managers in Europe and his record speaks for itself.

Both Allegri and Rangnick are seen as potential long-term replacements for current Spurs manager Jose Mourinho and would be able to keep Kane at the club, should they be appointed.

Kane has been a loyal servant to Tottenham for many years and has scored over 150 goals for the club in all competitions.

The 27-year-old is one of the best strikers in world football and it would be a huge blow for Spurs to lose him, especially to a Premier League rival.

Therefore Tottenham could look to appoint one of Allegri or Rangnick to ensure that Kane stays at the club, rather than move to Manchester United.
