And Merson said, “Arsenal will buy it, why not?

“If he is available, you have to weigh it. People will leave, he is the time, he is the time, but the Arsenal is now needed. If the arsenal does not win the league, you have to risk, buy someone who is proven. I wouldn’t be surprised.

“If they go to £ 64m, there are only a few teams that can buy it. Manchester City will not buy it, (and) if you believe in what you read that Manchester United wouldn’t pay a loan for (mathys) tel, then it’s worrying , then Tottenham.

“He will have to win something in Bayern because he will not return to Tottenham not to win anything.”

Henna tantalized, the lack of Shearer records

Kane scored 213 goals during Spurs and left only 47 shy records of Alan Shearer.

And Merson believes that the opportunity to break that Mark could be a decisive factor if he returns to England.

He added, “That would be a big move and if he didn’t believe he could beat Alan Sheaarer’s record, then I don’t really see the point in his return.”
