Club legend believes Madrid still want Kane

Spainsh legend Michel Salgado believes Harry Kane is Real Madrid’s second transfer target this summer after Neymar.

Kane finished last season with 30 Premier League goals and  striker has helped lead his country to the World Cup semi-finals with six in Russia.

His form was never likely to go unnoticed and, despite signing a bumper deal with Spurs prior to the tournament, Salgado believes Los Blancos would be a perfect fit for the striker.

“The first target I think is going to be Neymar for sure,” he told talkSPORT.“And then I don’t think we will have enough money to get Harry Kane.But obviously he is the kind of No.9 we are looking for, for sure.

Salgado added: “That number nine, we miss a little bit sometimes because [Karim] Benzema is another kind of player.

He can play in behind the striker, he can play in any position because he likes to come deep and get more involved in the game.

He went on to say: “So it doesn’t mean Harry Kane is coming that Benzema is to go.So let’s see what happens but I think the fans would like him to come to Real Madrid but [Daniel] Levy won’t like it.”
