Harry Kane ready to open Tottenham contract talks in sensational U-turn after Man City transfer fell through last summer

HARRY KANE is reportedly ready to sign a new contract at Tottenham after failing to secure a move to Manchester City last year.

The England captain, 28, pushed for a transfer to join the Citizens in his quest to win trophies, but he was priced out of a switch.

He is claimed to have turned down a bumper new deal last August to remain in North London.

But following the arrival of boss Antonio Conte, it appears that the ex-Leyton Orient loanee has had a change of heart.

The Italian gaffer guided Spurs into the top four at the expense of rivals Arsenal to secure a place in next season’s Champions League.

And it has been said that Kane is now excited for the future under Conte, where he believes he can now win his first piece of silverware for his boyhood club.

According to the Evening Standard, Kane is yet to hold talks on his deal that expires in 2024.

But they state that he is ready to enter into negotiations with Tottenham about extending his stay when he returns for pre-season.

However this depends on whether Conte is happy to remain in charge with the ex-Chelsea manager to discuss his future with managing director Fabio Paratici.

Conte refused to commit his future to Spurs following their 5-0 win against Norwich last Sunday.

He said: “I’m under contract until next summer. I signed for one year and seven months. I enjoyed a lot my time at Tottenham because, I repeat, for me it was a big challenge.

“To come in during the season, for a coach like me, is not easy. It was a big challenge in a modern club with a fantastic stadium and training ground.

“I knew the situation I could find, to give me the opportunity to work in the way that I want, on the one hand.

“On the other hand, I have ambition, I like to fight for something important, to lift trophies. For me this is a trophy and I’m very happy.

“Then we’ll see. I always said at the end of the season we’ll speak to the club and find the best solution for me and the club.”

It is understood that should Conte remain at Spurs, he will have cash to splash after owners ENIC injected £150million into the club.
