Darren Bent says that he is 'not surprised' Harry Kane is open to leaving Tottenham Hotspur as he urges his former club to consider cashing in.

Darren Bent has suggested that the time is right for former club Tottenham Hotspur to consider cashing in on Harry Kane.

The prolific striker has been linked with a move to Manchester United ahead of the summer transfer window after recently casting doubt on his future.

Kane, who scored 11 Premier League goals prior to injuring his hamstring on New Year's Day, said last month that he would not stay at Tottenham "for the sake of it".

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is reportedly holding out for a record £200m offer for the England international, and Bent believes that selling in the next few windows at that price would be wise.

"When you sell Harry Kane, you want to sell him at his absolute peak, and his peak is right now," he told Football Insider.

"So for me, if you're going to sell him, you've got to sell him in the next couple of years, and that's when you're going to get the most money for him.

"Harry Kane has already said himself that if Spurs haven't progressed at the rate he wants them to then he's not scared of leaving. It doesn't surprise me. You want to go and play for one of the giants in Europe.

"But if you are going to sell him, make sure you sell him at top dollar, and that could be £150-200 million."

Meanwhile, former West Ham United striker Tony Cottee has claimed that it is "inevitable" Tottenham will sell Kane to United.
