“There aren’t many (Robert) Lewandowskis and Harry Kanes. They’re like (Alan) Shearer, (Ruud) Van Nistelrooy – fantastic goalscorers,” Solskjaer said ().

“Ours are different types of players, but I have to say I like someone who can finish half a chance and he does that. He’s one of the best, but he’s a Tottenham player.”

Kane is under contract until 2024 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and he would cost potential buyers a fortune to prise away.

Perhaps, if they don’t win a trophy this season, top teams will come in to try their luck, and it might be difficult to stop him from wanting to go.

If Spurs want to win silverware though they can’t be losing their best player.

His outstanding goalscoring record and fantastic all-round game mean Spurs would be in a world of trouble trying to replace him.
