Spurs boss Antonio Conte has hit out at Bayern Munich head coach Julian Nagelsmann for talking about his admiration for Harry Kane – and insisted he is in no mood to sell off the England captain.
Reports in Germany state the Bundesliga champions may attempt to snare Kane as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski after making representations to the 28-year-old’s camp.
Nagelsmann, talking on Friday during his club’s United States tour, described the price tag involved as ‘a problem’ even though Kane would take the Bundesliga by storm.

However, in the wake of Saturday’s 2-1 friendly win over Rangers at Ibrox, in which Kane scored twice in the second half, Conte expressed his distaste for rival managers talking about rival players.
‘Honestly, I did not hear this,’ said the Italian of Nagelsmann’s remarks. ‘For sure, I am a coach that does not speak about other players at other teams.
‘I don’t know why. The situation with Tottenham is very clear. The plan is very clear with the club. He [Kane] is a part of the project, an important part of the project.
‘At the same time, I don’t like to speak about the players of other clubs.
‘If I want to do something, I’ll go and speak with the club and not go through the media. Maybe it is a little disrespectful for the other club. This is my way of dealing with the situation with other players.’
