Crouch warns Kane of struggle to leave Tottenham
Despite establishing himself as one of the top strikers in Europe during his time at Tottenham, the 27-year-old is yet to bag his first piece of silverware. Hence, he’s been linked with a move away from the Spurs as Crouch thinks Kane will find his exit path blocked.
"Harry Kane might want to play in the Champions League next season, but Daniel Levy simply won't bend," the former Tottenham striker told the
Daily Mail.
"I know how tough Daniel is when it comes to deals."
Crouch added: "People talk about Daniel's reputation but let me put it like this: his one and only agenda is what is best for Tottenham. If I was ever in a position where I owned a football club, I would want Daniel running it because he puts the club's interests above anything else.
"He doesn't deal in sentiment and it won't matter what Harry has done these last seven years. If he really wants to go, it won't happen unless there is an astronomical fee involved — and that puts a cap on those who could afford him."
Tottenham will reportedly only listen to offers within the region of £150 million for their captain as Manchester United and Real Madrid have been strongly linked with Harry Kane.
However, the former Liverpool striker believes the English striker would rather stay in the Premier League, adding: "I feel the circle of potential destinations will be further limited by his ambition to break Alan Shearer's Premier League scoring record.
"Tottenham won't do business with Chelsea, I doubt he'd get the trophies he wants at Manchester United, so that leaves only one domestic option: Manchester City."
