According to the Manchester Evening News, United vice-chairman and transfer mogul Ed Woodward is getting ready to make a bid for the 21-year-old Kane.
The report states that a bid in excess of £50million is possible for Kane, who scored 31 goals in all competitions last season.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has previously said the north London club have no intention of selling Kane at any price, but United are hopeful that a big bid will tempt him.
