JAKARTA - Harry Kane has missed Tottenham Hotspur's medical and pre-season training, reinforcing rumors that he will soon be joining Manchester City, The Guardian reported on Monday.
Kane was supposed to return to the Hotspur Way on Monday to undergo various tests, including a COVID-19 test after completing his holiday. However, the 28-year-old forward was not seen at the Spurs medical facility.
Kane himself has expressed his desire to leave his current club in order to achieve his ambition of winning the first trophy in his career.
Launching Antara, Manchester City is reportedly ready to pour big funds to get his services.
Kane's contract only runs out in 2024, but the England international was reportedly promised by Spurs president Daniel Levy last year to leave this summer.
Kane expressed his ambition to win world football's most prestigious trophy in March. He admitted that he was ready to leave if he felt Tottenham were no longer able to compete at the highest level.
"I love Spurs and will always love Spurs," Kane said when interviewed by Sky Sport at the end of last season. "However, I've always said that if I don't feel we're going in the right way, then I'm not someone who will just stay. I'm an ambitious player, I want to be one of the best players."
Tottenham finished the 2020/21 season without a title, and extended their trophy drought to 13 years.
Kane could have a greater chance of winning trophies with City, who have won three of the last four Premier Leagues under Pep Guardiola.
Kane made his senior debut for Spurs in 2011, since then he has made 336 appearances and scored 221 goals in all competitions for the Lilywhites.
