CHRIS SUTTON: Conte's right, Kane should commit his future to Spurs
CHRIS SUTTON: Antonio Conte is right… Harry Kane should commit his future to Tottenham! Spurs are on the up and the England star can put any talk of him leaving to bed
- Antonio Conte is eager for Harry Kane to commit his future to Tottenham
- This is a great chance for Kane to put past transfer speculation behind him
- Signing a new contract wouldn’t have any downsides for the prolific striker
We shouldn’t be surprised that Antonio Conte wants Harry Kane to sign a new contract.
No manager wants a summer of speculation like the one last year involving Manchester City. That was a messy situation. From the outside it looked like toys were thrown out of the pram and it impacted Kane’s performances at the start of the 2021-22 season.
Word is Daniel Levy tried to offer an olive branch by upgrading Kane’s current £200,000-a-week deal. That didn’t happen.

But now I cannot help but wonder whether Conte voicing his thoughts is an opportunity in disguise for the England striker.
He could use this to reaffirm his long-term loyalty to Tottenham and put all that pesky transfer speculation behind him. Kane has two years left currently and if he was to leave before that, where would he go?

This is a chance for Kane to show his loyalty to Spurs – there isn’t a downside to him staying
City isn’t going to happen, not now they have Erling Haaland. Liverpool isn’t a likely destination, and I’d be amazed if Kane was willing to go full Sol Campbell in 2001 by leaving Tottenham for Arsenal.
Kane agreeing to hop on the Conte fun bus would be a major boost to Tottenham. They’re on the up and I don’t see a downside to him agreeing a new deal.
