Harry Kane has been one of the best players in the Premier League for quite some time with the Tottenham Hotspur skipper topping the goal-scoring charts and also winning the playmaker award for providing the most assists during the 2020-21 season.  The English attacker has been vocal about constantly playing at the biggest stage possible aiming to lock horns against the best in business. He has often revealed his desire to compete for silverware which has not been possible with the London outfit over the last few seasons. 

Spurs' Premier League rivals Manchester Utd and their neighbors Manchester City are the two top clubs that have shown interest in acquiring the English strikers' signature.
