Harry Kane, who is a target for Manchester United, has expressed his unhappiness with Tottenham's poor performance this season, which has caused the team to become disorganized and lose its chance to play in the Champions League.
When Tottenham fired Antonio Conte in March, they promoted his assistant Cristian Stellini to take over the squad until the conclusion of the season. However, after only four games, Stellini lost his position as temporary coach.
Additionally, Spurs are certain to go 15 seasons in a row without winning a trophy and won't play in the Champions League again until at least 2024.
Kane intimated that a decline in standards has contributed to his unhappiness in an interview this week while talking about the club's performance.
"It's been a difficult season," Kane told Sky Sports. "Probably the last couple of years, the last two or three, we haven't been where we want to be as a club, so ultimately, there's some internal stuff we need to talk about.
"We need to discuss some of the standards around the team and the training ground, which we need to get back to. We had [standards] those in place when Mauricio Pochettino was here, so internally we need to do that."
"The chairman [Daniel Levy] will make a decision on what he thinks is best for the club, in terms of the coach and who he wants to bring in, the players to go and who he wants to bring in."
"I always think you're never too far away from being competitive with the right people, but also, you're never too far away from dropping down to 10th or 11th place in the Premier League because that is the standard."
"It's an important moment for the club, to feel a connection again with the fans, who I know have been frustrated with these moments. We need to try to build that relationship back up and try to push all in the same direction."
When he turns 30 in July, Kane is anticipated to demand a transfer fee of around £100 million from Spurs.
Erik Ten Hag praises Harry Kane
Harry Kane has been praised by Erik ten Hag as a "great player and great personality" in the midst of Manchester United's interest in the Tottenham forward.
Kane is the goal that Ten Hag prefers to pursue in order to hone a lax assault in the summer, but according to insiders, United are hesitant to participate in any matches with Daniel Levy, the chairman of Tottenham.
"First of all, the number of goals," Ten Hag said when asked what impressed him most about Kane, "and also his key actions [that] come to a goal. Final passes as well. He is just a great player. Great personality as well."
Daniel Levy's statement on Harry Kane's future
Tottenham Hotspur's chairman understands that a player of Harry Kane's quality needs trophies as souvenirs to prove his qualities as a legendary footballer, and that's the bait rivals are hoping to throw in and lure Harry Kane away from Spurs.
The 29-year-old hasn't lifted a trophy yet and lost out in one of the biggest finals of his career, the 2018/2019 UEFA Champions League finals, to Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool.
However, Daniel Levy is adamant that Tottenham Hotspur's record goalscorer will lift a trophy at the club. When questioned by the Cambridge Union if Kane must leave Spurs in order to win a trophy, Levy responded as follows: “He can absolutely win a trophy at Spurs."
“But being a legend is also important. The fact that he’s top scorer of Tottenham Hotspur – he’s making history.
“I hope one day that there is a statue of Harry Kane outside our stadium.”
This summer, Manchester United has been the primary Premier League club mentioned in connection with a transfer of Harry Kane. Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have also been mentioned.
Levy denied claims that he is the Premier League's toughest negotiator while also appearing to warn the Red Devils that luring Kane away won't be simple.
“I don’t consider myself a special negotiator or anything like that, I’m just acting in the best interests of my club,” said Levy.
“I think when it comes to the transfer it depends on the balance of power.
“If you have a player who you really don’t want to sell then you have every right to say no, you own the registration.
“It depends also on the character of the player, whether you feel at the end you can keep the player because we’re operating in a team sport, it’s very important that we keep the team together."
“Every circumstance is different," he explained.
