Son Heung-min: Harry Kane transfer speculation 'not easy'

Son and Kane have landed in Singapore for the final leg of their Asia-Pacific pre-season tour after an eventful few days in Bangkok.

Monsoon weather saw Tottenham's friendly with Leicester cancelled on Sunday and a day earlier a journalist from German publication BILD had unveiled a Bayern Munich shirt with 'Kane 9' on the back to new Spurs head coach Ange Postecoglou in his pre-match press conference.

Postecoglou was far from impressed but the noise around Kane shows no sign of going away, with Bayern expected to return with a third bid later this month and reports overnight stating Manchester United could enter the race again for the signature of the forward.

Kane, who is performing captain duties during Tottenham's tour after Hugo Lloris was left back in England to finalise a move away from the club, has been hailed by his long-standing strike partner.

"Harry has been fantastic for me," Son told reporters, via football.london, in Bangkok. "He's always professional, always working hard.

"He's never showed any thoughts about himself. There's so much news going around it's also not easy for him, but he's captain at the moment and he's working with the team.

"He doesn't show any distraction. He loves being here. I love him as a player. I fully respect him.

"He's one of the best strikers in the world, has been for five, six, seven years in a row. The decision will be between the club and Harry and we have to respect it.

"I can't say anything about the final decision because I don't know anything. Probably Harry doesn't know. We just have to wait."

Kane has entered the final 12 months of his contract at Tottenham and Bayern have increased their efforts to sign the forward this month, with their honorary president Uli Hoeness claiming last week that personal terms had been agreed between the German club and the England captain.

Bayern are reported to have lodged two unsuccessful bids for Kane so far this summer, but Spurs remain determined to keep hold of their all-time leading goal-scorer.

A new contract has been offered to Kane by Tottenham, which is a significant increase on his current £200,000-a-week terms, but he has not made any decision on the new deal while speculation over his future continues.

Spurs are set to play local team Lion City Sailors in Singapore on Wednesday before they head back to England.
