Real Madrid - Al Ain live online: Club World Cup final 2018
The pre-match lunch between Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur bosses ahead of their Champions League clash at the Bernabéu could go down in history as the beginning of a major signing saga.
Real Madrid ask how much Kane would cost

And now El Transistor programme on Onda Cero had revealed more details of the discussions. According to the radio station, Madrid formally asked how much Kane would cost. "The answer was that he was worth 200 million euros, in line with what the Times had published", said journalist Fernando Burgos. At this Real Madrid supposedly brought up the possibility of including Gareth Bale in any deal, and also Borja Mayoral "who Real Madrid value at 30 million euros".
Sources consulted by this newspaper said that Spurs boss Pochettino is keen on Mayoral. He wanted him two summer ago, before he went to Wolfsburg, and tried again this past summer.
