Man Utd transfer news: Harry Kane's purchase has been pushed for by United (Image: GETTY)

According to former Tottenham and Chelsea defender Jason Cundy, Manchester United must spend everything it takes to acquire Harry Kane this summer. The England captain has been linked with a move to Manchester United for a while.

Kane might be in line for yet another season at Tottenham without a trophy. In his club career, he has failed to take home any significant awards.

On Wednesday, Sheffield United of the Championship knocked Spurs out of the FA Cup. The only competition Antonio Conte's team can win this season is the Champions League.

To advance in their last-16 match against AC Milan, they must reverse a 1-0 first-leg deficit. United, however, is engaged in three rivalries despite having already won the Carabao Cup on Sunday.

Concerning the acquisition of Casemiro last summer, United was questioned. They agreed to pay up to £70 million to Real Madrid for a player who turned 31 in February.

This summer, Kane will turn thirty. Cundy thinks that even if United overpays for the striker, it would still be worth it, as Casemiro has demonstrated.

On talkSPORT, he stated: "Man United has to bully Spurs in the summer. I've been telling Man United to recruit Harry Kane for the past seven or eight years.

"This was when he was a baby. You could have purchased him for around £25–30 million, after which it would have increased to £50–60 million, then £70–80 million, and finally £90–100 million.
