Harry Kane could be the way for Manchester City to win the Premier League

DBasia.news – The arrival of Jack Grealish does not automatically make the way for Manchester City to defend the Premier League title to be spacious. The Citizens are considered to still need Harry Kane’s services.

Manchester City’s front line appeared dull when they travel to Tottenham Hotspur’s headquarters in the 2021-2022 Premier League opener. This caused Ilkay Gundogan and his team mates to be defeated by a score of 0-1.

Minor results are certainly not a good start for Manchester City. The chances of Pep Guardiola’s team to return to being the best in England are starting to be doubted.

The urge to immediately complete Kane’s transfer came back to the fore. This was revealed by one of the pundits, Graeme Souness.

“I went back there, City had 66% of the ball, but I never felt Spurs were defending. City need a goalscorer,” Souness told Sky Sports.

“They are not linked with Harry Kane for no reason. They need a proper centre-forward who will get them 20 goals per season.”

Manchester City have indeed made Kane their main target in the transfer market this summer. But their fantastic offer of 100 million pounds was rejected by Tottenham as the owner.

Manchester City then used the funds to redeem Grealish. Unfortunately, the presence of the former Aston Villa star could not cover the weaknesses on the front lines.

Manchester City has actually missed the presence of a goal-hungry striker since last season. Sergio Aguero, who took on this responsibility, had to miss a long time due to injury.

The weakness was not too visible because Manchester City was finally able to win the title. Even so, Souness believes that this would not be repeated.

“City have won three leagues in the last four years and have a great squad. But when you rely on Gundogan who is a midfielder to get goals, then you are on the wings and praying.”

Manchester City are believed to be soon making a new offer to Tottenham for Kane. The player also intends to leave to win the trophy.
