Man United have included Harry Kane high on their summer transfer wishlist, claims The Guardian.

However, United won’t find it easy to sign the Englishman because Spurs are likely to place a huge transfer price tag on him to ward off interest.
The Red Devils are hopeful that the uncertainty over Antonio Conte’s future at Spurs can convince Kane to push for a move to Old Trafford.
Kane has scored 20 goals and provided 4 assists in all competitions for Spurs this season.
