He's in same situation as I was' - Berbatov urges Kane to join Man Utd

Harry Kane's "head is not in the right place" at Tottenham, according to Dimitar Berbatov, who has urged the striker to take up the chance to join Manchester United this summer.

Berbatov says he was in exactly the same situation as Kane when he decided to swap Spurs for the Red Devils in 2008, and has advised the talented forward to make the same jump if his head has been turned.

"The final step for me was joining Manchester United and I knew I would be making people disappointed – especially Tottenham fans – but I was following my own path," The ex-Tottenham and United frontman told the BBC's Football Daily podcast.

"I knew if I missed that chance another one might not come. This is how it is in football. Sometimes you need to make tough decisions.

"The same situation is happening with Harry Kane at the moment, the exact same. He's in the same situation as I was in as he has started asking questions and maybe his head is not in the right place.

"My head was not in the right place. It was the same with [Christian] Eriksen. He wasn't really there in the last couple of games. I watched the games and I saw that his head was not there.

"Kane is in the same situation. If there is any truth in the rumours, it's in his head, 100 per cent. The lack of trophies is the main problem for players like Kane.

"He's not getting any younger. He wants to look back and know he won trophies. When I see Spurs play United now, even if on paper Spurs have better players, they still go there with fear."
