‘Kane must join Real Madrid to reach Messi and Ronaldo's level’ – Woodgate can’t see Spurs star snubbing switch

Harry Kane “has to go” if Real Madrid come calling says Jonathan Woodgate, with the Tottenham striker told he needs to join the serial winners in order to reach the level of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

A move away from north London for the prolific 27-year-old has been mooted for some time. Manchester rivals United and City are said to be keen on keeping the England captain in his homeland, but big-spending sides across Europe would welcome the opportunity to add a proven performer to their books.

Real are renowned for their ‘Galactico’ approach to recruitment and may be tempted to table an offer for Kane at some stage.
