Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has broken his silence over Los Blancos' alleged interest in Tottenham striker Harry Kane.

 

England forward Kane impressed as Spurs drew in the Bernabeu last week, heightening speculation that Real could make a move for his services next summer.

Kane has established himself as one of the world's premier strikers over the last three seasons, netting 31 times in 2014-15, 29 times in 2015-16 and 35 times last term.

He already has 13 goals from 12 appearances this season, but Perez insists he is not currently on the radar of Real.

"Signing Harry Kane has not passed through my head. He is a great player and in addition he is young," Perez told Cadena COPE .

"He has many years to progress, but we are delighted with [Karim] Benzema and with all of the team.

"I didn’t ask Tottenham’s president for the price because he would have told me that he is worth €250m."

Tottenham take on Real Madrid in the return fixture at Wembley next week after their Carabao Cup clash against West Ham on Wednesday night and trip to Manchester United at the weekend.
