KANE COULD EARN A WHOPPING PAY RISE IF HE JOINS CITY

The future of Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane is still a major case of concern as he continues to be linked with a move to Manchester City this summer. The England international forward has clearly revealed that he wants out of Tottenham this summer but the London club have also remained on their stance that they are not willing to see him leave anytime soon. It’s currently a critical situation for both the club and the player, with Tottenham pretty much unwilling to let go of their best player, while Kane feels that at 28, he should be winning trophies in his career instead of being that striker who scored a lot of goals without any trophy to show for it.

Kane has a couple of reasons to swap the Tottenham Hotspur stadium for the Etihad stadium and while one of them is the fact that he would have a greater chance of winning trophies, the other one is that he would be getting himself a massive pay-rise if the transfer goes through.

CAN MANCHESTER UNITED WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE?

The very big question that has lived on the lips of several of the club’s supporters, former players, and pundits alike. The Red Devils have not clinched the league title since 2013 when they last achieved the feat under legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Since then, they have hired different managers who have tried but failed to bring back home the Premier League crown.

Managers like David Moyes (signed from Everton), Louis van Gaal (joined from the Netherlands national team) and Jose Mourinho have all had their fair share of stints at Old Trafford but to no avail. Every year, the club dishes out a huge sum of money that they invest into transfers, including big-name signings but at the end of the day, the fans will eventually have to settle for the “next season is our season” quote that has now become a norm among the Old Trafford faithful.
