Was Tottenham’s Kane right to snub Manchester City? – The View from East Africa

He made the wrong decision. Great players such as Harry Kane should be in bigger teams that win trophies. Who will remember Kane after he retires from playing? Very few. But if those goals he scores every season could be translated into trophies, then his name will always be remembered across the globe.

He falls under the likes of Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo, Thierry Henry, Robin Van Persie, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema. The difference is, all the above have won trophies with their respective clubs. He hasn't.

He agreed to a contract and Spurs wanted money for him so to say there was a gentleman's agreement means nothing has value. This is what Spurs think he’s worth and a buyer has to pay, unfortunately, I don't think Man City valued him as much.

He now has to be mentally good and set his mind to starting again and show the Spurs faithful he is going to produce good results, but again the window isn’t closed yet so let us wait and see.

He should have gone for greener pastures. When will he win trophies? Remember Manchester City is a bigger club compared to Spurs, with world-class players and it would have turned him into a top striker in the Premier League for the next five seasons with Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish playmaking (behind him).

He’s too comfortable, should have moved to a club where he can push his limits and win major titles, for now, he will only remain Spurs' legend.

Kane is 28 almost clocking 30 and that’s the age when many strikers’ graph starts to bend downwards, so I feel he should have moved to Man City to win trophies before his career comes to an end. Staying at Spurs will deny him the chance to win major trophies.
