TOTTENHAM have banned a reporter who left Ange Postecoglou furious with a cheeky Harry Kane stunt.
The striker’s future remains up in the air this summer as Kane is in the final 12 months of his contract.
Bayern Munich have put pressure on Tottenham with two bids for their talisman, with a third set to be submitted.
And one German reporter could not help but poke fun at the situation with a clever joke.
During Postecoglou’s press conference ahead of the friendly against Leicester, the reporter unveiled a Bayern Munich shirt with “Harry Kane 9” emblazoned across the back.
He said to the Spurs boss: “What does that look like? It looks quite good, no?”

Postecoglou reacted angrily, saying: “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Did you get a good laugh? Very good. You came a long way for that.”
Tottenham have now banned the reporter from future press conferences after withdrawing his accreditation for the Leicester match.
Some fans think the club has overreacted to a bit of harmless fun, with one suggesting they are “bitter”.
The Kane saga appears to be having a negative effect on Postecoglou who admitted he is “not relaxed” about the situation.
