After a very disappointing season, happenings in North London took another turn for the worst when Harry Kane made it quite clear of his intentions to leave. Manchester City are the club rumoured to pull in the world-class striker, and with Moise Kean returning to Everton after his loan spell and Mauro Icardi's future uncertain, Mauricio Pochettino could also attempt a reunion in Paris with the English striker.
Replacing a player like Kane is impossible. His world-class technique on the ball, mixed with his ability to play between the lines and incredible passing range which means he can turn into an immense creator within seconds. Kane’s replacement has huge shoes to fill. But here are three potential strikers that Daniel Levy should consider to replace Kane, should he leave.
Patson Daka
In the past years some of Europe’s brightest prospects have begun their trade in Salzburg: Sadio Mané, Dayot Upamecano, Naby Keïta and the wonderkid grabbing all the attention, Erling Braut Haaland. Patson Daka is the next in line. Born and raised in Gambia, the striker's numbers alone show why he is one of the most sought-after strikers in Europe: 34 goals in 42 games, and 27 in 28 in the Austrian Bundesliga.
