Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is angry with Harry Kane after he declared he wanted to leave in an interview this week.
Unsettled Kane claimed his future was up to him, rather than the club he is contracted to for the next three years, and even suggested Levy could decide to accept a bid of £100m for him should one be forthcoming.
The Daily Mail says Levy is understood to consider Kane's comments to be disrespectful and is unhappy that the club's talisman opted to go public just days after news of his transfer wishes was broken by Sky Sports, Gary Neville's principal employer.
The timing of Thursday's five-minute trailer of the interview — on Sky pundit Neville's YouTube channel The Overlap — irritated Levy, coming the day after Tottenham's final home game of the season against Aston Villa.
Kane had appeared to make an emotional farewell to Tottenham fans after the first match they were permitted to attend since December — a 2-1 defeat which has all but cost them Europa League football next season.
Levy and Kane held talks about the player's future last month, when the England captain firmly expressed his desire to leave this summer. But the club were hoping such conversations could continue in private.
