Harry Kane. What more can you say about Tottenham’s new golden boy? Scoring 31 goals, 21 of those in the Premier League, in your first full season in England is naturally going to grab people’s attention. According to many sources, Manchester United is one of them. So interested in fact, that they are pondering a £40 million bid this summer. But it seems unlikely Spurs will cash in on Kane in this transfer window.

The man himself has come out in the media to say he is confident he will be playing at White Hart Lane next season. Several sources have reported this is felt strongly within the boardroom as well. There shouldn’t be need for Spurs fans to be anxious.

Heading into last season, Harry Kane was comfortably third choice in manager Mauricio Pochettino’s striking options. But after impressing in Europe, he displaced the underperforming pair of Emmanuel Adebayor and Roberto Soldado in the league. By the time December rolled around, he wasn’t only just the main man up top, he was arguably one of the most important member of the first team.

The young Englishman received plenty of plaudits come season end and rightfully so, becoming only the third player in the Premier League younger than 21 to score more than 20 goals. There is a lot to like about Kane’s game. As a striker, he will always be judged on scoring goals and he certainly does a good job of that. He can sink them from inside the box, outside the box, on either foot and is well adept with his head.

He always seems to be in the right place at the right time and that’s not by chance. He is always thinking about the position he needs to be in and most importantly, his feet are always in motion. He’s relentless in his pursuit for goals and he never stops. So many times last season we saw that by the time a defender had made up his mind on where he needed to be, Kane was already there.

But there is more to this game than just goals. He can hold the ball up well and his link up and passing is severely underrated even for someone so in the spotlight. And perhaps what endears him to his manager most is his work rate. He never stops running, never stops trying, never stops pressing until the final whistle in an attempt to win back possession for his team. His passion and work rate is unmatched.

Add that to him being a local lad who is a lifelong fan of the club and you have the complete package. Even thinking cynically, his ability, work rate and Roy of the Rovers narrative makes him an important marketing tool as Spurs look to grow their global brand.

While it seems unlikely that Levy will pull the trigger this summer, it may be too difficult to resist for the chairman if similar offers are put to him in the next few years. But that wouldn’t be a smart move on his part, even with all of that money on the table. Harry Kane is priceless to Tottenham.

Things would get complicated if he demanded a move in the future, but Kane seems very happy being the main man at the club. Spurs would never be able to reinvest that money and be able to upgrade on the player Kane is and what he represents. He embodies everything you want in a player. We’ve seen it first-hand. The big money move that brought Soldado to White Hart Lane failed miserably.

For so long Tottenham have been searching for a proven, top class goal scorer and now that they’ve found that right under their noses, it would be madness to let him go in the near future.

Kane still has a long way to go and his second full season could be dangerous. Teams will be aware of his threat and better adjusted to try and deal with him. The media will be looking to tear him down just as quickly as they’ve built him up. He will need better help from his supporting cast and a new striker will certainly need to be brought in to provide adequate back up. It’s difficult for any player to score 30 goals in back-to-back seasons, let alone a 22 year old with a target on his back. He needs some of that massive amount of pressure taken off of his broad shoulders for the upcoming campaign.

Spurs need to realise no matter how many times they’re offered this reported sum for Harry Kane, it won’t be worth it. They’ll never be able to buy better. He’s priceless.
