Harry Kane would have waited until next summer to sign for Manchester United if the deal was guaranteed to go ahead, Mail Sport can reveal.
Kane will make his Champions League debut for Bayern Munich against United at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night after joining from Tottenham for £100million.
The 30-year-old had set his heart on a move to Old Trafford and would even have seen out the final 12 months of his contract at Spurs, but he wasn’t sure if United could keep the door open for him.
