- Strong message from Spurs on Kane
- Kane totally committed to the club
- Bayern determined to sign the striker
WHAT HAPPENED? Tottenham Hotspur are currently in Perth, Australia for pre-season where Postecoglou met Harry Kane. After holding talks with the star forward, the Spurs boss claimed that as long as Kane is at the club he is totally committed.
WHAT THEY SAID: Speaking to reporters in Perth, Postecoglou said, "I had a good chat with Harry. It was nothing earth-shattering as people are seeking. Just a good chat, introduced myself, and we spoke mainly about the club, where it's at and where he thinks can improve.
"It's not a specific vision for one person, it's about the group and we're perfectly aligned on that - we want to see a successful team this year. There are a lot of people who know Harry better than me, but he's not going to get phased by anything. He's here and while he's here, he's totally committed to what we're doing, and that's the way I've seen things."
THE BIGGER PICTURE: The Spurs boss added, "The discussion wasn't really about [the future], it was more about the collective and what we're doing. Harry's the same as all the other players, it's not something I ask when they walk through the door, asking have you got a ticket or not.
"It's about working hard as a group as we go along, some will be on for the whole journey, others won't, but a lot of that gets decided along the way. It's not something I'm demanding from people right at the outset. "We've got nearly a month until the season starts, the transfer window's still open, so we'll see what transpires."
