Ex-Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher isn't sure a mega-money move for Harry Kane will benefit Manchester United.


The England captain hinted earlier this week that he could seek pastures new if Tottenham Hotspur are not eager to win trophies, adding that 'I’m not someone to stay there for the sake of it'.


However, Liverpool legend Carragher reckons Kane is running out of time and may need to leave the north London club sooner rather than later. "Kane turns 27 in July," Carragher wrote in his Telegraph column. "We have no idea when the next transfer window will open or next season start. If Kane does not leave soon, the situation gets trickier for him. "When players hit 28, psychologically it makes a big difference to clubs. They see him as nearer 30, recognise there is no resale value and balk at high valuations. "Manchester United’s need for a top-class No.9 is urgent and they might see Kane as the ideal fit, but they will apply the same logic if the fee is upwards of £150 million." Carragher believes the forward Kane has "reached the crossroads of his career at the worst time possible". The Sky Sports pundit added: "In other circumstances, the Tottenham striker’s comments suggesting he would consider a move in the near future would be reasonable. "Spurs fans may not like it, but I can understand why Kane is wondering whether his trophy ambitions will be served elsewhere."


Kane has scored 181 goals in 278 games for Spurs, and is joint third in their all-time scorers list.
