What has been said?
Postecoglou has admitted last week’s meeting with Harry Kane was “nothing earth-shattering” but still a good chat amid Bayern Munich’s growing efforts to lure the forward to Germany.
Kane has entered the final 12 months of his deal with Spurs and speculation over his future has heightened in recent weeks.
The England captain returned to training on Wednesday and held a meeting with Postecoglou, but the Australian has played down its significance.
Postecoglou told reporters at a press conference, via football.london, from the WACA Ground in Perth: “I had a good chat with Harry.
“Nothing earth-shattering as people are seeking. Just a good chat, introduced myself, spoke about the club and where we can improve.”
David Moyes has hailed Postecoglou insisting Spurs is a perfect move for him after managing Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.
“He will never get more pressure than he did managing Celtic Football Club,” said Moyes, who began his playing career at Parkhead.
“Celtic Football Club are probably the third or fourth best supported club in the world, and if you manage Celtic Football Club you are used to pressure. So he will have no problem.”
