Harry Kane doesn't need much introduction. If you're a fan of the Premier League, then you're probably well aware of the Englishman.

He is by far the best player Tottenham has available. In an era of excitement and promise, it's Harry Kane who deserves all the plaudits. He makes Tottenham the widely recognised club they are.

Kane is a proven goal scorer, that's for sure. Although he was beaten to the top last season by Mohamed Salah, he is by far the most deadly attacker in the league. You will often see him on the scoresheet, and importantly for United, against the big sides is no different.

One thing which works in Lukaku's favour is his involvement in link-up play, but guess what? Harry Kane is better at that too. If you watch Spurs play, you will often see Kane drop deeper than expected to contribute to linking the play between midfield and attack.

Obviously, this is a wildcard. It would be extremely difficult for Manchester United to sign Harry Kane, especially given his recent contract situation. This is more likely to be a dream, but United have the resources should they become desperate.
