There is no question that Kane is one of the best players in the world and could represent any team.

However, he is a Tottenham academy graduate and Spurs' record goalscorer and has often stated he wants to win something with the north Londoners.

But Tottenham seem further away than ever this season, so could Kane decide to move on this summer?

When does Kane's deal at Tottenham expire?

Kane signed a long-term deal with Spurs in June 2018 after helping the club finish third, second and third in the previous three campaigns.

Spurs then made it to the Champions League final in Kane's first year of his new deal, but since then, things have gone downhill.

The highest Tottenham have finished is fourth, while they haven't been past the fifth round of the FA Cup and lost to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final in 2021.

And after all that stagnation, Spurs appear to have wasted Kane's best years and his deal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will expire in the summer of 2024.

This means Tottenham have a decision to make over Kane's future.

Will Kane sign a new deal?

Earlier this year it emerged that Kane was willing to sign a new contract with Tottenham.

Contract talks were planned for after the January transfer window, and the English giants want to allow Kane to have a say in key decisions at the club and hire a head coach that suits him.

However, with Spurs out of all cup competitions and facing a real battle to get into the Champions League, he could change his mind.

Recent reports have suggested that Kane has finally decided to move on in the pursuit of trophies, meaning Tottenham could face a major headache in the summer.

talkSPORT pundit Danny Murphy believes it is now time for Kane to move on.

"He's got to be sick to death of playing in a team that's so poor and uncompetitive.

"I can't see why he would stay now, I've said this before, but now even more so. The problem he's got are what are his options? That's the key.

"Because if you're going to move from the club you love and where you are a legend and breaking records every time you go on the pitch, it's got to be to a place that's going allow him to be more competitive and win - or try to win things at least."

Where could Kane end up?

The most likely destination for Kane, if he leaves, is Manchester United.

The Red Devils are in desperate need of a striker and have identified Kane as that man.

He has scored 24 Premier League goals this season and would be comfortably winning the Golden Boot if it weren't for Erling Haaland.

Spurs are set to demand £100million for Kane, but United are seriously looking into signing the Spurs icon.

A move abroad to Bayern Munich is also a possibility.

The German giants have followed Kane for some time and see him as Robert Lewandowski's successor but they have no intention of getting involved in a bidding war.

If Kane were to decide on Bayern, he would have an excellent chance of winning the Champions League as well as the Bundesliga.

However, he would then likely miss out on possibly winning the Premier League and breaking Alan Shearer's goalscoring record, with this likely to be his last major move.

Another potential option for Kane is Chelsea.

talkSPORT understands that former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has verbally agreed to take over as Chelsea's next manager.

The Argentine and Kane have a fantastic relationship, and under the ex-Paris Saint-Germain gaffer, Kane became the force he is today.

Chelsea will need to sign a striker, and they don't come much better, but would Kane join one of Tottenham's biggest rivals?

Darren Bent believes that Pochettino will attempt to take Kane to Stamford Bridge.

Speaking on talkSPORT, he said: "I'm convinced that conversation would happen.

"Pochettino would probably reach out to Kane himself and say, 'Listen, do you fancy it?' The fans would probably turn on him. Judas would be the name."

So Kane won't be short of options should he decide to leave Spurs, but Tottenham will hope they can finish in the top four and convince him to commit his future one last time.
