Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has claimed that he is confident talisman Harry Kane will stay at Spurs for next season, despite speculation surrounding the England captain's future.
Kane has been linked to numerous top European clubs after his admission that he wants to win major trophies in his career, amid interest from Manchester United, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain.
The 27-year-old has scored 31 goals in 44 appearances for Spurs this season but the Lilywhites may have a difficult task in retaining the striker after failing to win the EFL Cup and being five points behind fourth-placed Chelsea in the quest for Champions League football.
However, the confidence of Redknapp is not fazed when it comes to keeping Kane in North London, and speaking to Goal he said: "I think he'll stay. I think the new manager will come in and convince him that they'll be having a go and signing a few more players.
"There's nobody better than him. I wouldn't swap him for any centre-forward in the world, personally. He would guarantee Man City, Man Utd or Liverpool winning the league next season, for sure. He's a fantastic player. Tottenham have to keep him.
"Everything is in place at Tottenham. They've got the best stadium in England, bar none, they've got an incredible training ground, which is out of this world, and they have good players.
"Okay, maybe they need to shift one or two out who have come to the end of their time, and get one or two in. But if they do, anything can happen. They could be right there challenging next season."
Kane made his first-team debut for Spurs in 2011 and has gone on to make 331 appearances, scoring 219 goals in all competitions for the club.
