Jamie Carragher remains unconvinced that Harry Kane will be allowed to leave Tottenham in the summer despite the club's recent embarrassments that saw them lose 6-1 to Newcastle and interim head coach Cristian Stellini sacked.
Kane will soon enter the final year of his Tottenham contract and is wanted by a host of European clubs, including Manchester United who apparently started their move to bring Kane to Old Trafford on Monday.
The England captain has been unable to lift a single piece of silverware since coming up through the Spurs ranks - his closest was a Champions League final defeat to Liverpool - and could look for a summer move elsewhere in a bid to finish his career with a trophy to show for his efforts.
But, former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher doesn't believe Kane will be allowed to leave as he thinks Spurs chairman Daniel Levy remains in charge of the 29-year-old's future.
After previously posting online that Levy would 'turn down' a bid from Manchester United, he was then questioned by a Spurs fan-run Twitter account that asked Carragher: 'Have you changed your mind on this after yesterday?' in response to Tottenham's thrashing at St James' Park.
Carragher doesn't change his mind, writing: 'I’ve thought it for a while and I don’t think the Spurs results change the fact that, if Levy doesn’t want him to go he can’t go!
'I understand the idea of cashing in before he goes for free, but as I said I’m not sure how many options will be there next summer.
'I don’t see him going abroad as he will want the PL (goals) record. So would someone pay him 300/400k a week in the PL while they have another top striker?,' he added.
'That striker will still play plenty of games meaning Kane doesn’t play every week??
'That’s why I think he stays!!'.
Carragher could have a point with Levy previously being a tough negotiator when it comes to allowing star players to leave the club.
The Englishman was pursued by Manchester City in the summer of 2021 but eventually was refused a transfer. Pep Guardiola at the time revealed that Tottenham were proving difficult in negotiations.
Guardiola explained: 'If Tottenham don't want to negotiate, it's finished,' Guardiola said. 'If they are open then all the clubs in the world will want to sign him.
'It depends on Tottenham. Harry is an extraordinary striker. We are interested in him but if Tottenham don't want to negotiate, nothing more to say.'
Kane would be Tottenham's biggest high-profile departure since Gareth Bale left to join Real Madrid in a world record £85million deal in 2013.

How can you say such an unthinkable thing? Don't allow sentiment to upbeat your intelligence. Only a clown does that. Have you not seen the progress made by Erik Ten Hag since he took over Manchester United?
if he continue to use Maguire, i doubt he will have serious improvements at all dun believe? watch

If Kane stay at Spurs, he end up with not even a single trophy to his name if Kane sign for Man Utd, he also will be trophyless by end 2 seasons later. if other words, he chose the wrong clubs he shd go Man City where all dreams come true

If he stays then he lacks ambition
probably he felt if he move to Man Utd or other clubs, he didnt help the team to win trophy cos trophies are a norm for these clubs, except Man Utd

Levy will make sure he make Kane a free to leave agent end of next season. I doubt Levy love £150M. He really love to see players leave for free

since Carragher is always wrong; kane will join man utd this summer. after the mess this season they can’t offer/sell him another project in the building. man utd looks for a proper no. 9 and are showing they are building a team to win trophies. only problem; levy and the price tag…

true, just for the legacy of one club career? but why? he has done enough for Tottenham and can't win anything more with them.

pork meat is forbidden in Islam that's how winning a trophy is HARAM for Kane... maybe it's his village people that are after him.😁
