Harry Kane has decided that he wants to join Manchester United instead of Chelsea or Real Madrid, and is prepared to leave Tottenham for the Red Devils on a free transfer in 2024 if he is not sold this summer. (Football Transfers)

Nevertheless, Real Madrid have not given up hope of signing Kane and are working to convince Spurs to sell them the striker for £68m to ensure he does not join a Premier League rival. (Marca)

If they fail to land Kane, Real Madrid are prepared to use Rodrygo as their central striker next season before moving to sign Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer in 2024. (COPE)

Chelsea have already been knocked back with a €100m bid for Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde but have submitted an improved offer worth €120m plus a further €20m in add-ons. (Defensa Central)
