5 players who will cost more than Philippe Coutinho's £142m transfer fee

Wigan Athletic v Liverpool - Pre Season Friendly
Mohamed Salah has been linked with Real Madrid recently

#2 Harry Kane

Arsenal v Tottenham Hotspur - Premier League
Harry Kane is on Madrid's radar

Okay, let’s take a deep breath here and evaluate this. Harry Kane is currently the leading goalscorer in the Premier League with 18 goals. In 2017, he scored 56 goals to end up with the most strikes among all players in Europe—toppling Lionel Messi and finally breaking the duopoly of Cristiano Ronaldo and the Argentine in that regard.

Kane is only 24 and the Englishman plays for Tottenham Hotspur—a club that hasn’t won anything in ages.

Also, the most important fact: Real Madrid want him—and when the Galacticos want a certain player, they almost always get their man. In the case of Spurs, it is more of tradition than anything else. In fact, the last two best players of Spurs are now at Madrid.

And now, Kane is on the radar. Knowing this transfer market and Daniel Levy’s stinginess when it comes to letting go of his players, Kane might become the first £200 million player in the world.
