Manchester United legend Gary Neville has claimed that Harry Kane would be a "perfect" signing for the club.
Speculation over Kane's future has been mounting in recent weeks following the striker's suggestion that he could leave Tottenham Hotspur if he felt as though they were not making progress towards silverware.
United are one of the front-runners for the England captain's signature, despite Tottenham's reluctance to sell to a Premier League rival, and Neville believes that he would be an ideal addition to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team.
"Any club in the Premier League would want Harry Kane. There are some signings that are like gold, where you just know they are going to work. Harry Kane is unbreakable in the sense of his mentality. He'll always score goals, will always give 100% in training, and is completely reliable as a manager would want," Neville told Sky Sports News.
"For Manchester United, it would be a perfect signing in terms of what they need. They had Bruno Fernandes come in and he's done a great job, Harry Maguire at the back. If they can get someone like Kane up front, you're looking at a fantastic spine. It fits Manchester United's historical transfers, going back to Bryan Robson, Roy Keane, trying to sign Alan Shearer, Rio Ferdinand, Wayne Rooney.
"They were the best or most famous English, British or Irish players in the Premier League and Manchester United tried to sign that player so it does fit with that. Just look at what Manchester United did last summer with Harry Maguire, who was one of the best players on the mark.
"In terms of Kane, I did work with him for England. He's a clever lad and he's not somebody who would get caught out if he didn't want to say something. The little opening if the door that he left in that Instagram piece with Jamie was probably something that had something in it.
"I also don't think Kane would have been that impressed with his club a couple of weeks ago with what they did [using the Government's Job Retention Scheme and furloughing staff]. Kane is a good lad, a solid lad and he wouldn't have taken that particularly well and he's probably just poking them back. In my mind, I think he would have been warning them and saying 'just be careful because I'm watching you and it's not something that we do'."
Kane, who has reportedly been valued at as much as £250m, has scored 181 goals in 278 appearances for Tottenham.
