Antonio Conte drops huge hint Man Utd target Harry Kane could quit Tottenham in summer transfer
ANTONIO CONTE has dropped a big hint on Harry Kane's future.
England captain Harry Kane has been extensively linked with a transfer over the summer window, with the likes of Manchester United very interested.
Previous reports have suggested Tottenham will demand £100million for their record goalscorer, but United chiefs believe they will lower this if Spurs finish outside of the top four.
However, other reports suggest the North Londoners will block Kane from leaving and risk his contract expiring in 2024.
Regardless, Conte has confirmed the club's intention to keep Kane, but gave no assurances over such a move.
Speaking in his press conference ahead of the clash against Southampton, Conte said: "For sure, the club wants to involve Harry Kane for the rest of his career in my opinion.
