Look away Tottenham fans, because the news you have been dreading looks set to become a reality in the hours ahead.
It remained unclear as of last night if Harry Kane would really join Bayern Munich after their latest bid of £86.4m was accepted by Spurs on Thursday.
Some suggested that he still wanted the move, others said he was leaning towards one final season in north London.
However, The Athletic’s David Ornstein reports this morning that Kane has Spurs’ blessing to fly out to Germany today to complete a Bayern medical and pen a four-year contract with the reigning Bundesliga champions.
The England captain is expected to be handed the No9 shirt at the Allianz Arena. It’s happening!
There’s only one place to start on the transfer front this morning, with Liverpool set to beat Chelsea to a massive deal for Moises Caicedo.
It was reported yesterday that essentially the highest bidder by the end of Thursday would get the wantaway Ecuador midfielder, with Brighton wanting a long and protracted saga that has now dominated two consecutive transfer windows finally put to bed before the new season begins.
Fabrizio Romano reports that the Seagulls are poised to accept a mammoth bid from Liverpool that includes a total package worth a British-record £110million, which was higher than Chelsea’s late-night offer of £100m.
He adds that the Reds already have a medical scheduled, with Jurgen Klopp set to speak to Caicedo this morning to convince him over a move to Anfield after he had his heart set on Stamford Bridge.
Is there another late twist in this transfer tale to come? Klopp is due to address the media at 10am ahead of Liverpool’s Premier League opener against – yes, you guessed it – Chelsea on Sunday…
