A fresh insight into the efforts of the powers that be at Premier League outfit Tottenham Hotspur to keep hold of talisman Harry Kane has been provided on Thursday evening.
The name of frontman Kane has of course taken its place front and centre in the media headlines in north London once more across the summer to date.
This comes amid widespread reports that this past season may well represent the 29-year-old’s last with his long-time club.
Amid intense interest on the part of Bayern Munich and Manchester United, the England international, it is understood, has one eye firmly on the exit door at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
And yet, despite Kane having just one year remaining on his contract, Spurs just last week opted to turn down a proposal worth a considerable €80 million for his signature.
❗️Excl. News #Kane: Understand FC Bayern has submitted a second offer now! #COYS
➡️ New offer: €80m + add-ons!
First offer (€70m + add-ons) was rejected.

This comes as Daniel Levy and co. hold out hope of the prolific attacker changing his mind, to ultimately stay put in London for years to come.
The info comes by way of Sami Mokbel of the Daily Mail, who has revealed that the Lilywhites are prepared to smash their wage structure, to offer Kane an eye-watering contract worth in excess of £400,000-per-week.
Even more head-turning, though, is the claim that this proposal would also see England’s all-time top goalscorer remain attached to Spurs beyond the close of his career on the pitch.
This comes with the board at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ready to offer Kane an unspecified post-playing career role.
