TOTTENHAM are keen to sign Harry Maguire in a shock transfer from Manchester United, according to reports.
New Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou will be itching to cling onto in-demand Harry Kane as a matter of priority this summer.
The England captain is wanted by Man Utd and Real Madrid.
But Spurs are hoping a stroke of genius could keep him in North London.
Kane has previously recommended Three Lions pal Maguire to the Tottenham brass.
And, according to the Telegraph, Spurs are mulling over a move for the centre-back.
