#3 Spurs should replace well

Liverpool v Tottenham Hotspur - Premier League
The potentially big money transfer will pay for a world class replacement.

Yes, it is true that they blew the windfall from the £85 million sale of Bale but it is unlikely that Spurs are going to repeat these mistakes.

Only Christian Eriksen, unquestionably a success and Erik Lamela remain from that mad splurge in the summer of 2013. However, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is not someone who is known to repeat such mistakes.

First of all, any club that wants to acquire Kane would have to pay through their nose and Levy is a notoriously skilled operator in such high stakes negotiations. The transfer fee could be anything between £150m and £200m, considering the sort of deals that have gone down over the past two years.

That would allow Spurs the luxury of replacing their best player with a player, who might not be exactly in the same category but should definitely bring the same goal-scoring abilities to North London.

Hence, it is a strong possibility that Spurs might be just as good once their star striker leaves.
