Guardiola could not believe how close Harry Kane is to joining his old side Bayern Munich
Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola has reacted to a proposed move for Tottenham captain Harry Kane by his former side, Bayern Munich, in a recent press conference ahead of the new Premier League season.
Guardiola reacts to Bayern Munich Harry Kane links
Tottenham accepted a bid from Bayern Munich for Kane on Thursday, leaving the England captain with a difficult decision to make as regards his immediate future.
This news was relayed to Guardiola at a press conference to mark the start of the Premier League season, and the Cityzens gaffer reacted with a hilariously shocked expression at the thought of Kane joining the Bavarians, asking a Manchester City staff member if the transfer was official.
Guardiola is known to be a long-time admirer of Kane, and Manchester City had been keen on the Englishman joining before opting to sign Erling Haaland after failing to see eye-to-eye on a price for the forward with Tottenham.
Tottenham forced to wait on Kane decision
With the Premier League set to resume for the 2023/24 season, starting with Friday’s match between Manchester City and Burnley, there are still doubts as to whether Kane will be a part of the campaign.
The England international has yet to make a final decision on his future, leaving Tottenham unsure of his participation, with replacements already in the works for Spurs.
Tottenham open their Premier League season against Brentford, hoping to erase memories of a dismal 2022/23 campaign.
