Tottenham manager unimpressed by reporter’s stunt involving Harry Kane shirt.
Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou was not amused when a German reporter attempted to play a prank on him during a pre-match press conference in Bangkok ahead of Spurs’ pre-season friendly against Leicester on Sunday.
The reporter presented Postecoglou with a Bayern Munich shirt, bearing Harry Kane’s name and the No.9 on the back, a cheeky reference to Bayern’s interest in the England striker. The German club has made two offers for the 29-year-old forward, who is entering the final year of his contract with Spurs. Despite Paris Saint-Germain also showing interest, Kane is reportedly not considering a move to the French champions.
Bayern’s honorary president, Uli Hoeness, recently suggested that Kane is open to a move to Germany, even claiming that the club had spoken to members of Kane’s family about the potential transfer.
However, Postecoglou, clearly irritated by the reporter’s actions, gave a blunt response: “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Did you get a good laugh for it? Got what you came to get? Maybe? Very good. You came a long way for that, thank you.”
The Australian manager has been candid about his concerns over Kane’s future, admitting he is far from relaxed given the ongoing speculation and the striker’s contract situation.
