Real Madrid are reportedly readying a mammoth player plus cash deal for Tottenham striker Harry Kane after Carlo Ancelotti identified the England no.9 as the successor to Karim Benzema.
Los Blancos have already agreed a deal to bring teenage sensation Endrick to the Santiago Bernabeu in the summer of 2024, when the player turns 18, but require cover in the more short term for the increasingly injured Benzema.
Kane has emerged as a possible option, with the 29-year-old down to the final 12 months of his contract in north London, meaning that this is the last chance Tottenham will have to generate any income for the academy talent who has scored 28 goals in the Premier League this season.
If they do sell, they are keen to sell outside of the Premier League amid interest from Manchester United, something that the striker himself may disagree with as he looks to chase down Alan Shearer’s all-time Premier League goal tally of 260.
According to Cadena Ser, they have offered Real Madrid the chance to sign Kane, in a deal that would see Eden Hazard end his torrid spell in the Spanish capital and return to London, albeit the other side of it than his Chelsea days.

A significant sum of money would also head Tottenham’s way, though it is unclear how much Real Madrid will have left in the coffers following the impending addition of compatriot Jude Bellingham, who is set to arrive from Borussia Dortmund.
