Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane is determined to join Manchester City this summer in hopes of collaborating with England’s colleague Jack Grealish at the Etihad Stadium.

Grealish’s departure from Aston Villa may have escalated on Saturday, after the club announced they have agreed a deal to sign Bayer Leverkusen’s winger Leon Bailey as a potential replacement for their captain.

And The Telegraph reports that Kane has also decided on his future and is now pressuring to leave Spurs this summer to join England’s team-mate Grealish on the Premier League champions.
The 28-year-old has very publicly expressed his desire to leave north London throughout the summer and offers a very revealing interview with Gary Neville. Kane explained that he wants to win trophies in his career and must sit down with chairman Daniel Levy to discuss the club’s project.
The captain of England and Tottenham has apparently come to a decision and is waiting for a possible move to Man City, where he has a much better chance of picking up silver. 90min recently revealed that Spurs did not plan to sell Kane this summer, despite pressure from their Premier League rivals.
Kane, however, remains unmoved by Levy’s stubbornness, and even as recently as this week he thought he was “sure” of sealing a move from White Hart Lane. Tottenham have the upper hand in the negotiations, however, but the forward’s contract runs for another three seasons.
Grealish’s impending arrival at the Etihad will only further convince Kane of the champions’ ambitions to consolidate their place at the top of the English tree and finally end their quest for Champions League glory.
Kane would be forced to miss European elite football again this year if he were to stay with Spurs and his desire to compete at the highest level could cause him to force a move in the coming weeks.
