Tottenham striker Harry Kane is "flattered" to be linked with Manchester United but insists he is happy at White Hart Lane.

The 21-year-old has been linked with a big-money summer switch to Old Trafford after scoring 31 goals in all competitions for Spurs last term.

That included 21 in the Barclays Premier League, second behind only Manchester City's Sergio Aguero, in his first full campaign in the top-flight.

With United said to be at the head of a list of suitors, Kane, who is currently on duty with England Under-21s, admitted he was aware of interest but is content to remain in north London.

“I’ve seen there’s interest but that’s all I know,” he told Sky Sports News HQ.

“It’s flattering for other clubs to maybe be interested but I’m happy at Spurs and I’m looking forward to the future.”

When he was asked whether it would be hard to turn down United, Kane replied: “Tottenham are a big club and that’s the way people have got to see it.

“I’m at a big club now, I’m enjoying my football and I’m looking forward to next season.”
