TOP STORY: Man City still missing £ 50million for Kane

It always seemed like a transfer saga that would go all the way to the August 31 wire and deadline, and the Daily Mirror reports Manchester City are no closer to a Tottenham Hotspur deal for Harry Kane.

Kane, 28, has made it clear he wants to leave Spurs this summer, but chairman Daniel Levy insists he will stay unless City reach the £ 150million transfer valuation.

Mirror Sport claim City have not improved their £ 100million opening bid, while Spurs will not accept any players as heavyweights in the deal.

With nine days remaining in the transfer window, it’s a question of who blinks first, although the power is at Spurs as Kane has three more years on his contract.

The city is reportedly ready to offer £ 120million, with additional incentives to raise fees. But even that may not be enough to put the English captain in that window.

The two AC Milan and Inter Milan are interested in the 30-year-old, according to Calciomercato. Insigne, who has a year’s contract left, is tempted to leave his youth club for another challenge.

It is reported that the Rossoneri are more likely to wait for the Italy international to become a free agent at the end of the season, while Inter are considering a move in this window but only have a budget of 20 million euros due to their financial situation.

The winger has spent his entire career in Naples, climbing the academy ranks and achieving the rank of captain.

Insigne has made six appearances and scored two goals in Italy’s Euro 2020 victory last month.
