McManaman: Real Madrid need player like Mbappe, not €200m Kane

The Blancos continue to be heavily linked with the Tottenham striker, but the former Bernabeu star would rather see them move for a younger option

Real Madrid should be looking for an exciting youngster such as Kylian Mbappe rather than spending €200 million on Harry Kane, says Steve McManaman.

The reigning La Liga champions continue to be heavily linked with the prolific Tottenham striker, who has been billed as a natural successor to Cristiano Ronaldo in the Spanish capital.

Kane’s form for Spurs and England has put him in the shop window, with a regular source of goals seeing him placed in a talent bracket alongside the world’s best.
