 Man Utd Can’t Carry On Kane Pursuit

Manchester United have no chance of signing Harry Kane from Tottenham. No chance at all. Tottenham are adamant they will not sell the 22-year-old striker, says the Guardian. The Indy says Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy met with his opposite number at United, Ed Woodward, in May to tell him in no uncertain terms Kane is not for sale at any price.

But wait a moment…

The Telegraph says Tottenham will only sign Javier Hernandez from Manchester United if the Mexican is included in a deal for Kane.
