MANCHESTER CITY are preparing an optimistic £90million move to land Tottenham superstar Harry Kane, according to reports.
Boss Pep Guardiola is in the market for Sergio Aguero’s long-term replacement with the striker out of contract in the summer.

The Argentinean legend, who is the club’s record scorer with 256 goals, has seen his season marred by injuries.
Aguero, 32, has been limited to just four Premier League appearances and Guardiola is eager to land a new striker who can fill his boots.
And Bild claim Kane tops the bill with City preparing an audacious move at the end of the season.
The Spurs captain, 27, has cemented his reputation as one of the world’s best with 204 goals in all competitions for them since the start of the 2014-15 campaign.
Boss Jose Mourinho has deployed him in a deeper role this season but he has still delivered with 16 goals and ten assists.
Kane still has over three years left on his deal in North London and Tottenham are unlikely to cash in on their main asset.
The striker could be forced to look for the exit door if Tottenham miss out on Champions League football next season.
Kane has yet to win a major trophy despite his goalscoring exploits and revealed he may have to leave one day to pursue his goals.

When asked about his future last season, he said: “I get asked this question a lot, it’s one of them things… I couldn’t say yes, I couldn’t say no.
“If I don’t feel like we’re progressing as a team or going in the right direction, I’m not someone to stay there just for the sake of it.
“I’m an ambitious player. I want to become a top top player, so it all depends on what happens as a team and how we progress as a team.”
