MANCHESTER UNITED legend Paul Scholes believes Harry Kane will choose to stay at Tottenham this summer despite interest from the Red Devils.
Kane, 29, has been heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford in recent weeks.

He emerged as one of Erik ten Hag’s top transfer targets at the beginning of March, shortly after becoming Tottenham’s all-time leading goalscorer.
But according to Scholes, the England skipper would not be the best fit for Man Utd.
When speaking to BT Sport, the 48-year-old said: “I think goals are a problem, [United are] a long way behind City and Arsenal at the top of the table goals wise.
“I think Harry is very happy where he is. If he was going to move it would have been to Man City a couple of years ago.
“He would be fantastic, 25 goals guaranteed, but it’s very difficult for him to move at 30 years of age.
“It’s a risk as well for Man Utd, if you put all your eggs in that Harry Kane basket and all of a sudden Daniel Levy is messing you about, you might end up with no one.
“If you get him early, brilliant, but I just think he’s very happy at Tottenham doing what he’s doing.”
Man Utd have expressed an interest in signing several young strikers since January.
Victor Osimhen remains a top target, but Napoli are demanding a Premier League record fee of £115-130million.
United are also keen on the prospect of signing Benfica’s Goncalo Ramos.
However, the Portugal international is also expected to cost more than £100m.
