Man United ready record breaking bid to sign £362,000 a week star – Report
Manchester United are trying to take a different approach with Ruben Amorim in charge
Despite being relatively early in his management career, the Portuguese tactician will bring his own ideas to the table following a very successful tenure at Sporting CP.
Even though Amorim would undoubtedly want to add players, it’s unclear how much leverage Sir Jim Ratcliffe and company will give him given how much they spent on summer acquisitions.
In any case, this hasn’t deterred the team from aiming high.
Manchester United is expected to compete with PSG and is prepared to make a club record deal to get Harry Kane, the star of Bayern Munich, according to a Catalan source, Nacional.
It hasn’t even been two full seasons since Kane made the move from Tottenham Hotspur to Bayern. He went to the Bundesliga club in search of the first trophy of his career, something he has failed to achieve until now.
As fate would have it, his first season with the German giants coincided with one of their first ever trophyless seasons in a long time.
Now, as per the report, Man Utd are readying a bid of around £108.2m to sign Kane. The English striker is on course to winning his first trophy with Bayern this season and once he does that, he could entertain a move back to the Premier League.
One thing that Kane could potentially be looking at is breaking Alan Shearer’s record for most goals in the Premier League.
The £362,000 a week Englishman doesn’t have much time left in his prime and once he has won a trophy, he could consider returning to the English top-flight.
It remains to be seen if Manchester United are willing to make such a significant outlay for a player who is on the wrong side of his 30s.
That said, Kane could be like Lewandowski and still have a long time left in his prime and let’s wait and see how his future plays out going forward.
