Harry Kane to Juventus is a 'long shot' says pundit
Manchester United are facing another busy summer in the transfer window as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer shapes his side. One player who has been linked with the Red Devils in recent weeks is Tottenham striker Harry Kane.
The England captain is reportedly considering his future with Spurs struggling this season as he wants trophies in the remainder of his career.
United cannot offer that at present but the signs are that they are moving in the right direction under Solskjaer.
Last summer they brought in Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James while in January they added Bruno Fernandes and Odion Ighalo to their squad.
All have been successful, with United on an 11-match unbeaten run before coronavirus led to the suspension of all football.

Kane has once again been in good form this season, netting 17 goals in all competition.
But the 26-year-old has been out of action since January 2 due to a torn hamstring tendon.
There is no doubt Kane would be a quality addition at Old Trafford but he would cost in excess of £100million for anyone who tries to test Tottenham’s resolve.

It all depends on the future of Paul Pogba who has been linked with an exit to Real Madrid or a return to Juventus.
The World Cup winner has been out injured for most of the season and Solskjaer has been involved in a war of words with his agent Mino Raiola.
If it meant United bringing in Sancho, Grealish and Kane then the only decision to make is to sell Pogba.
The Frenchman has not been a consistent performer for the Red Devils since his big-money move from Juve in 2016.
If Pogba does remain at Old Trafford then United should think twice about signing Kane.

Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, the impressive Mason Greenwood and Ighalo could all be striking options if the Nigerian’s loan deal is made permanent.
That is not a bad foursome to lead the line for Solskjaer’s side.
In contrast, the midfield is light and adding Sancho and Grealish would take the squad closer to that of Liverpool and Manchester City.
