Reporter Florian Plettenberg (42), an expert on the European transfer market, gave a sharp word to Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy (61) during a live broadcast. He demanded that Harry Kane be sent to Bayern Munich. The British ‘Sports Bible’ reported on the 9th that “Plettenberg criticized Chairman Levy during a live broadcast.”

Munich moved to sign Kane right after the end of last season. This is because there was no suitable replacement resource after Robert Lewandowski, who was in charge of the front line for 8 seasons, left for Barcelona. Serge Gnabry, the team’s top scorer, struggled with 14 league goals, but Gnabry was more inclined to be a winger or second striker rather than a front-line striker.

Munich’s first transfer offer for Kane goes up to two months ago. Munich made the first offer with a transfer fee of 60 million pounds (approximately 99.6 billion won) in June, but Chairman Levy did not even snort. Then, in July, he raised the amount to 75 million pounds (approximately 125 billion won) and handed over a second proposal, but Chairman Levy was still consistent with no response.

Then, Munich president Jan-Christian Dresen and Marco Nepe technical director left for London, England, without accompanying Munich on the Asian tour, and met Levy. Chairman Dresen proposed 95 million euros (approximately 134.8 billion won) including incentives while having lunch with Chairman Levy. But this time too, to no avail. Munich’s 1st, 2nd, and 3rd proposals were consistent with a characteristic silent response. A few days later, Munich offered the final 100 million euros (approximately 141.9 billion won) to Chairman Levy. However, Chairman Levy did not change his policy of accepting negotiations from more than 120 million euros (approximately 170.2 billion won). Leaving the burning heart of Munich behind, Chairman Levy went on a leisurely vacation to Miami, USA. He was a de facto refusal.

Plettenberg, a reporter for the German edition of ‘Sky Sports’, has been covering the rumors of Kane’s transfer for the past few months and representing Munich’s need for a new striker. He is also famous as a reporter who quickly reported the situation of Kim Min-jae’s transfer to Munich.

During the live broadcast of ‘Sky Sports’, Plettenberg, who was explaining the transfer situation of Kane, suddenly turned to the camera and said strongly, “President Levy, if you are looking at me, please allow Munich’s proposal! So that Kane can go to Munich.” . He continued, “The negotiations are not progressing at all and it is getting more and more annoying. (Not only the fans), but also I am annoyed.” However, it is unlikely that President Levy will let go of Kane despite his strong request. ‘Sports Bible’ explained, “Plettenberg’s opinion is likely to be ignored. Chairman Levy wants to hold on to Tottenham’s main and important asset, Kane.” “If Kane’s transfer is successful, Munich will record the highest transfer fee in the team’s history. However, Munich coach Thomas Tuchel is more likely to operate a squad without Kane,” he predicted.

Kane has one year left on his contract with Tottenham. Even if he does not move to Munich this summer, he is likely to leave Tottenham as a free agent (FA) player next year. ‘Sports Bible’ said, “Tottenham must solve the issue of Kane’s transfer before the transfer market closes. From Tottenham’s point of view, a contract renewal can be a solution.” will be,” he advised.

Chairman Levy, who wants Kane to renew his contract, is also planning to offer the highest weekly wage in the English Premier League (EPL). According to the British ‘Telegraph’ last month, Chairman Levy took out a card for a weekly wage of 400,000 pounds (about 670 million won) to Kane. If this proposal is successful, Kane will receive the highest level of weekly wage in the EPL along with Elling Holland and Kevin De Bruyne (more than Man City). Meanwhile, Kane is steadily digesting the EPL pre-season schedule ahead of the new season. Coach Enze Postecoglu has shown Kane his confidence by starting three of his last four matches. In particular, Kane repaid the trust of the new coach by exploding four goals in the match against Donetsk Shakhtar (Ukraine) held at Tottenham home on the 8th.

Now, there are only 4 days left until the opening of the EPL. Tottenham will begin the opening game of the EPL, starting with Brentford on the 13th. Germany’s ‘Bild’ said on the same day, “Kane wants all decisions to be made before the opening of the EPL. When the league starts, Kane has no intention of transferring,” predicting a high possibility of Kane’s retention.
