Report: Man City considering 220-goal man earning £753k p/w if Harry Kane pursuit fails

Manchester City would like to sign Harry Kane to replace Sergio Aguero this summer but are considering alternatives should their pursuit of the 27-year-old fall through.

Mundo Deportivo say the Sky Blues have their eye on Antoine Griezmann and could make a move for the out-of-favour Barcelona forward if Kane is unattainable.

Kane would be the ideal signing for Pep Guardiola as he’s been prolific in England (237 goals in 401 games) and would be a homegrown player, but he still has three years remaining on his deal at Tottenham.

Spurs have no intention of selling Kane and would request an astronomical amount of money from City to pry him away from them, so Griezmann might be an option.
