Harry Kane

If this did happen you'd need to double the 40 mill just for 'Levy' factor :D
He does exceptionally well on the outgoings at Spurs - just a shame about the incomings!

Chicarito would be the likely makeweight anarl.

So 80 mill plus Chicarito then :lol:

True though.

If Real Madrid or Barca want a young player then he could go for £60m + because that is what those 2 clubs will pay to get players.

If those clubs don't want him then he won't be 'worth' as much as that. It's not as if someone somewhere measures a players attributes and then uses the results to calculate a value. When people talk about the 'market' for players like Kane they are basically talking about roughly 8 clubs. Whether any of those want him determines what he's worth. If Man U or a similar club him then he'll go for something daft, if no one like that wants him then he won't.

Worth suggests "value" and is an assessment of that value.

By your logic, no one could ever overpay for anything ever. Or no one could ever get a good deal. If Man Utd offered £75mln for Steven Fletcher, it doesn't mean that he is worth that. It means they are idiots
 
Shocking money, but pretty good value when you look at the Sterling deal. Still not sure if it will happen though

Wish I could of remembered the folk who were telling me Wickham was better than him. This was the end of the season before last. Been progressing excellently. Clearly has talent and will continue to get better and better

Up until last season Kane had had a series of uninspiring loan spells at lower league clubs and a few decent games towards the end of the season before. Around the same time Wickham was having his best spell for us. Kane was given a crack upfront for Spurs and pushed on, Wickham was shunted out wide in the most defensive team in the league. Up until then it wouldnt've been too unreasonable to say they were similar talent wise. They are absolutely worlds apart attitude wise though and that makes all the difference.

It's not just attitude. Kane is far superior. Wickham can barely hit a barn door on a good day!

"Value" is assessed very differently by each club. Man United will decipher whether a player is good value to them in a different way to a mid table club, as shelling out £30m isn't going to cripple them the way it might others - the relative cost to them of such an outlay isn't as significant. That isnt the same as saying no one can ever overpay for anything ever.

If one of Europe's top 8 wants a player you can expect him to go for a vastly inflated fee. Whether or not one of those clubs are interested can depend on factors aside from the player's ability. Hardly a surprise to see Kane priced at £40m for a transfer to Man United.

Fine.

Tore Andre Flo was worth £7mln
