Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane is Manchester United’s top summer transfer target and the striker was serenaded with chants of “we’ll see you in June” by Red Devils fans.
Manchester United are hoping to sign Harry Kane this summer and Red Devils fans were quick to weigh in on the transfer speculation as their side took on Kane’s Tottenham on Thursday.
The forward’s current contract with Spurs is due to expire at the end of next season and United have made him their top summer target. And when Erik ten Hag’s side were ahead in the first-half, United fans serenaded Kane with a chant referencing his potential switch to Old Trafford.
“Harry Kane, we’ll see you in June,” they sang. It was not the only notable chant heard during the game as both sets of fans took aim at their respective boards with United supporters singing “We want Glazers out” and Spurs fans chanting “We want Levy out”.
And Kane was ultimately named player of the match as Tottenham produced an impressive comeback after going two goals down to draw the game 2-2. Jadon Sancho put United 1-0 up after just seven minutes, before Marcus Rashford doubled their lead on the stroke of half-time.
Pedro Porro then got one back for Spurs, before Kane teed up Son Heung-min’s 79th minute equaliser. Speaking after the game, Son hailed his side’s fightback, which came after their embarrassing 6-1 thrashing against Newcastle last week.
“I thought we didn’t deserve to be 2-0 down in the first half,” he told BT Sport. “We played quite well, we had the chances to score but we weren’t clinical enough.

“I think in the second half we showed great character, but we’re not happy we didn’t get three points. The final decision making wasn’t perfect.
“We didn’t want to let the fans down, we wanted to give everything and that was the dressing room speech. We couldn’t let the game go. We were really angry about it, we didn’t deserve to be 2-0 down at half-time. I think the lads showed really good character.
“Football is all about the fans. The last week was unacceptable and we didn’t want to repeat that. We feel really, really sorry for the performance and result [at Newcastle] and today we wanted to bring a good energy. With them, we really appreciated their support. They were fighting with us.”
