But Tottenham certainly won’t want to loan Devin or Scarlets down the pecking order this season.”Tottenham” is ready to loan Devin this seasonOf course, there is a good example of what a loan move can do for Tottenham’s young players, just ask Harry Kane.
While no agreement was reached, it was not considered a setback, according to BILD’s report.
The English media suggests that Bayern Munich is currently £20 million short of Tottenham’s valuation of Kane, and Spurs are interested in including a buyback clause in any potential deal.
However, journalist Ben Jacobs points out that there remains a significant gap in valuation between the two clubs.
Bayern’s offer of around £80 million may not meet Tottenham’s demands.
Meanwhile, Paul Gilmour asserts that Harry Kane will remain relaxed if the rumored transfer to Bayern Munich falls through this summer.
Kane would reportedly be open to speaking with Bayern if a deal is agreed, but he is also content to continue playing for Tottenham knowing that he will be in a strong position next year, potentially moving on a free transfer.
He told Sky Sports:
“If a deal is agreed, then we understand that Harry Kane would be keen to formally speak with Bayern Munich.”
“If a deal isn’t agreed, then we are also told that he is quite relaxed. He will simply get on with his football with Tottenham, knowing he is in a strong position in the next year or so.”
The situation puts pressure on Daniel Levy to secure a deal for Kane, as Tottenham would not want to risk losing their most prized asset for nothing when his contract runs out.
With both Tottenham and Bayern Munich having their respective stances and valuations, the fate of the transfer now lies in the hands of the two clubs.
