Rio Ferdinand’s unlikely role in extraordinary Man Utd transfer plan to sign Harry Kane

Rio Ferdinand is helping Porto striker Mehdi Taremi secure a move to the Premier League – with Spurs considering the Iranian amid doubts on Harry Kane’s club future

Tottenham have been linked with a move for Porto striker and Iran international Mehdi Taremi – whom Rio Ferdinand is helping secure a move to English football.

Taremi has been prolific in Portuguese football but he is out of contract at Porto next summer and the club are willing to listen to offers for the striker this summer. Spurs face an uncertain situation amid ongoing interest in their star striker Harry Kane.

The England captain is out of contract in north London next summer with Bayern Munich pushing for a transfer this year. So far, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has rebuffed all approaches for Kane and insists that he is not for sale – despite the risk of losing him as a free agent next season.

Kane would command a fee of upwards of £80million this summer and Tottenham would be more open to allowing their star player to leave for Bayern rather than a direct Premier League rival. Manchester United were hopeful of a move this summer, before discontinuing their interest.
