Harry Kane is set to prevent his former club Tottenham getting hold of a player they admire this winter, with Mathys Tel reportedly intent on staying at Bayern Munich and continuing his apprenticeship under the England captain. Kane may be quietly pleased to get one over on Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, who stepped in to block his desired move to Manchester City two years ago.<\/p>\n
Not only did Levy block Kane’s Etihad Stadium switch by demanding \u00a3200million for his services, he also dragged the striker’s Bayern Munich transfer saga on until the late stages of this summer by playing hardball with the German giants.<\/p>\n
Kane, who tops Tottenham’s all-time scoring charts with 280 goals, has hit the ground running overseas, to the extent that highly-rated teenager Tel is yet to start a single Bundesliga game up top this season.<\/p>\n
According to Sky Germany, a host of clubs sought to capitalise on the 18-year-old’s limited game time by proposing a loan move in January. Spurs are known to be admirers of Tel, having attempted to include him in Bayern’s negotiations for Kane.<\/p>\n

And painfully for Tottenham, Kane is a key factor, as his understudy wants to learn from the red-hot frontman in order to take his game to the next level.<\/p>\n Bayern boss Thomas Tuchel is therefore in an ideal situation, whereby his starting striker is among the highest scorers in Europe and his back-up, who has notched eight goals and four assists of his own, is satisfied to continue coming off the bench.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Harry-Kane-Daniel-Levy-5108625.jpg?r=1702249013419\")
