England captain Kane’s potential move to Manchester City was one of the stories of the summer – and one which had a happy ending for Tottenham manager Antonio Conte.
Asked about how he read the situation, Conte said: “In the summer I followed the situation about Harry and I saw what happened and what could happen. The club decided to keep Harry in the team and I think it was a great choice by the owner,” explained Conte.
“In this way you are showing you want to try to continue to build something important around one of the best players in your team.
“I followed the situation but now it is not right to look at the past. Now we have to live in the present, which says that Harry is a player at Tottenham and continues to be one of the best players in this team.
“He wants to give 100 per cent in every game and I am totally satisfied with his commitment and the relationship that we have created within the team.
“He is a point of reference in the dressing room and an experienced player. I am totally enthusiastic about his involvement in the team and the Tottenham project.”
