Tottenham 'identify Harry Kane replacement' with £77m-rated Serie A striker being eyed should talisman depart for Bayern

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR have identified a replacement for Harry Kane if he joins Bayern Munich.

The England striker has been strongly linked with the German giants this summer.

Spurs have so far rebuffed advances for their star man, but could be forced to sell him with just one year remaining on his contract.

Kane has even told Bayern that he wants to join them, according to the club's president Uli Hoeness.

Rudy Galetti reports that Spurs have identified a replacement for Kane, though, in the form of Dusan Vlahovic.

The Juventus striker is being targeted, with Spurs moving to understand his situation ahead of an official approach.

Both Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain are also interested in the Serbian forward, the report adds.

Juventus value Vlahovic at £77million but are open to selling him this summer.

Vlahovic scored 14 goals in 42 appearances last summer, including 10 in Serie A.

He also scored for Serbia against Switzerland at the World Cup in Qatar.

Any Kane exit is likely to wait until after Spurs' pre-season tour of Australia and East Asia.

The striker has travelled Down Under with his team-mates ahead of their friendly against West Ham United.

Ange Postecoglou's side will then face Leicester City and Lion City Sailors in Thailand and Singapore, respectively.
