WHY AREN'T UNITED GOING MAD FOR IT AND TRYING TO BUY KANE?

WITH the transfer window remaining open for another month or so, plenty of marquee moves can still take place.

But, as each week of the window passes by, there is one scenario that still baffles.

Why on earth do Manchester United seem uninterested in a pursuit of Harry Kane?

Is it because they would regard the likely £100million asking price for a 30-year-old striker as way too steep?

Considering United have, apparently, put a £40m tag on Scott McTominay, £100m for Kane would be an absolute bargain.

Is it because Daniel Levy has privately made it known that he will not, under any circumstances, sell to United?

What has become clear is that Joe Lewis, whose family trust owns Spurs, has said Kane must be sold if he does not sign a new deal.
