Paul Merson has urged the Gunners to sign Harry Kane from Bayern Munich despite him being a former Tottenham player.
The England international’s release clause in his contract was £67million in January and will drop to £54million early next year.
Merson insisted he would not be shocked if Kane opted to join the Emirates Stadium, where the Gunners are in dire need of a centre-forward.
Kane is a modern-day Tottenham icon, having scored 280 goals in 435 games for the club between 2011 and 2023. The lethal striker is Tottenham’s record goalscorer, ahead of other legendary figures such as Jimmy Greaves and Bobby Smith, while he was also on course to beat Alan Shearer’s Premier League scoring record prior to his switch to Bayern Munich.
Asked if he was serious about the move, Merson replied เล่น UFABET ผ่านมือถือ สะดวกทุกที่ ทุกเวลา : “Arsenal will buy him. “
Why not? For £64m, why not? Sol Campbell did it (to join the team).
“People will say ‘Oh look at his age, he’s that old’ but Arsenal want him now.
“If Arsenal don’t win the league you have to take your chances. You have to take your chances. Buy someone who’s proven.” “
I wouldn’t be surprised. And when you’re Harry Kane and you’re told you can go for £64m, there’s not many teams that would buy him. “
Maybe Tottenham will buy him back but he’ll have to win something with Bayern Munich before he goes back to Tottenham.
“If you don’t win something with Bayern Munich, you’re not going to go back to Tottenham to win something.”
