Ranking the 5 most likely destinations for Tottenham Hotspur superstar Harry Kane

#3 Chelsea | Premier League

Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea - Carabao Cup Fourth Round

Despite struggling at the start of the season, Chelsea have established themselves as one of the best teams in the world since Thomas Tuchel took over. The German has terraformed a frail Blues unit into a side that is a nightmare to break down. One area where they lack some impetus is perhaps at the tip of their attack, as goals have come at a premium under the German.

Kane is possibly one of a handful of players who can not only address this shortcoming, but make it one of their strongest suits. The striker is the best ready-made product available to any English club aspiring for the title. He is arguably the best pure goalscorer in the league over the last decade and will be a monumental upgrade on any of Chelsea's current options.

While a transfer to Chelsea is more realistic than the likes of Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, there is still one major roadblock in any potential deal. It might be a more politically challenging move to pull off as it could be difficult to purchase Kane from their London rivals, Spurs. After 16 years in North London, it is difficult to envisage him pushing for a controversial cross-town move.

#2 Manchester United | Premier League

Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester United - Premier League

Manchester United's interest in Harry Kane dates back a few years as they have been linked with him since Jose Mourinho's time at the club. The Red Devils have historically looked to sign the best English players in the market, and Kane could make an excellent addition to their British spine under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Manchester United weren't believed to be in search of a top-tier centre-forward after Edinson Cavani's recent extension, but Solskjaer recently hinted that this isn't the case. He suggested that Cavani's extension doesn't rule out further additions to the attack, which could be a subtle hint towards a potential move for Kane. With the Uruguayan having turned 34, Kane could be a great long-term solution up top.

There is no doubt that the Spurs star could make Manchester United genuine contenders for the Premier League title. They could offer him UCL football and potentially build on their second-place finish this season and give the 27-year-old a shot at silverware. All of this, while being able to offer him huge wages and pay his transfer fee, makes Manchester United a great option for Kane.

#1 Manchester City | Premier League

Considering all the factors weighed up so far across the four previous options, the most ideal destination for Harry Kane, as things stand, is Manchester City. Pep Guardiola's side have arguably been the best team in Europe this season and are set to complete in the UCL final after already wrapping up the Premier League title.

The Cityzens have won three of the last four Premier League titles under their legendary Catalan boss, including a host of domestic honours as well. City are the most well-equipped Premier League side to offer Kane the chance to win trophies. Their expansive brand of football could also suit Kane, who has spoken of his desire to keep improving on his overall goal tally.

Perhaps most importantly in this regard, Kane could slot in perfectly as a replacement for Sergio Aguero. The Argentine veteran is set to depart from Manchester this summer, leaving Gabriel Jesus as their only recognised centre-forward. Kane could be the man to take over Aguero's mantle and could bolster what is already one of the best squads assembled in the 21st century.
