Football news LIVE – Man Utd takeover, Liverpool face Juventus battle

Gary Neville believes Harry Kane is the kind of player who can lead United to the Premier League title.

Reports have linked the Tottenham star with a move to Old Trafford as he approaches the end of his contract in North London however Spurs are likely to fight hard to keep him.

“I’ve worked with him and I’ve said this before, he will score 30 goals and get 10 or 15 assists and that’s an absolute fact,” he told The Overlap. “He’s a professional, the dressing room will love him, he’ll fit in straight away and he’s a guarantee for Manchester United.

If he’s going to cost £150m and he’s 30 it’s short lived but Casemiro, we all said it by the way, a £60million [transfer fee] and £20m a year for five years is a £170m investment.

“It’s not a smart or shrewd signing, none of us thought that, but the impact he’s having in the short term is what Manchester United need, he’s devastating for the club in an unbelievable way.

“So Harry Kane, he’s the type of player who could take you to the title, he’ll connect the whole of the midfield to the top of the pitch and will score goals. The fans will love him, the players will love him and I don’t see how you can go wrong with him.”
