What does everyone make of the daily fail having Kane as our number 1 target £45 million.?

Daily Fail :-)
Says it all.
Looks a great player and I do like him but I would say £25 mill is more realistic, £30 mill at a push.

I agree with Herbie that the price quoted seems a little rich. I personally think the £25m is about right in a normal market, but there are 3 factors in play here that can't be ignored:
1) the Levy effect. I.e you will pay through the nose for my players.
2) the Utd effect. People know we have money to spend so add 15-20% to the asking price.
3) the home grown player quota. With this coming into play the premium for English players is going to go through the roof and it wasn't cheap in the first place.
Considering the above £45m is probably about right.
{Ed025's Note - everything you say is correct there huggy..

If ed002 hasn't mentioned it, I wouldn't pay attention to it - simple as.
