Man Utd in huge Harry Kane transfer boost as Tottenham line up Dean Henderson to replace Hugo Lloris
MANCHESTER UNITED could be boosted in their Harry Kane pursuit by Tottenham’s interest in Dean Henderson, according to reports.
Spurs are believed to be eyeing a long-term successor for Huge Lloris, 36.
They were said to be interested in England No1 Jordan Pickford but he penned a new long-term deal with Everton in February.
Tottenham have targeted Henderson as an alternative this summer if United are willing to let him leave, report ESPN.
And the report adds Red Devils chiefs could use that to their advantage in negotiations over Kane.
Kane is believed to be Erik ten Hag’s no1 target this summer but United fear nightmare negotiations with Spurs chief Daniel Levy.
The striker is understood to have an asking price of £100million but there is concern shrewd negotiator Levy could drag on talks until late in the window.
However, Spurs’ interest in Henderson could encourage Levy to be more open to talks involving Kane.
The shot-stopper could also be keen on a move to North London after joining Nottingham Forest on loan to get more first-team football this season.
He has impressed at the City Ground and had become a vital member of the Forest’s progress before he picked up a muscular injury.
