Harry Kane ends the summer as he started it – as a Tottenham player

The England captain made it clear he wanted to leave his boyhood club but a big-money move to Manchester City has not materialised as he hoped

What started with an interview Gary Neville on a golf course ended with two short sentences on social media.

"I will be staying at Tottenham this summer," tweeted Harry Kane, and with it one of the transfer stories of the summer is over.

While it is clearly not what Kane wanted it's certainly a relief to all those at Spurs with the club talisman and top scorer now tied down for one more year at least.
