Where Harry Kane and Erling Haaland will end up after the transfer window amid Man Utd links

Former Manchester United and England right-back Gary Neville has this afternoon been entertaining his Twitter followers with an open Q&A session, answering questions on a wide range of topics.

The Sky Sports pundit announced that he would run a 15-minute Q&A session on the social media platform, inviting his followers to put any questions to him that they could think of.

As expected, it featured humorous questions, including asking him what is favourite Nando's order is and who is his most hated Liverpool player of all-time, which, of course, was responded to with the answer of Jamie Carragher, given the duo's friendship and publicly displayed banter.

Tottenham talk: Gareth Bale return, Harry Kane and Davinson Sanchez form

As well as the sarcastic and tongue-in-cheek responses, Neville was also asked a variety of questions on football and transfers, with one person asking him where he thinks Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane and Borussia Dortmund ace Erling Haaland will be playing their club football next season.

Both players have been heavily linked with moves to Manchester United recently as the Red Devils look to add a world class striker to their ranks.

However, Neville does not seem to be under the impression that either of them will be donning a United shirt next season.

In response to the question put to him about where Kane and Haaland will be playing next season, the former United man said: "Europa League, the way they're going."

What context Neville meant that in exactly is, of course, hard to tell, but the law of averages would suggest that he believes both Kane and Haaland will be staying at their respective clubs beyond this summer's transfer window and be playing Europa League football.

Currently, Tottenham are eighth in the Premier League table, four points shy of the Europa League places, meaning that any hopes of securing a spot in the Champions League next season are in serious danger.

Spurs, of course, are still in this season's Europa League, meaning they could qualify for the Champions League if they were to go all the way and clinch European glory.

Dortmund, on the other hand, have faced difficulties in the Bundesliga this season, currently sitting in fifth place, three points shy of Frankfurt in fourth. Like in England, the top four in Germany qualify for the Champions League whilst those that finish in fifth and sixth face the prospect of Europa League action.

Should Dortmund fail to qualify for the Champions League, it has already been confirmed that they will have to offload some of their big-name stars to cover costs, but it remains unclear whether or not Haaland would be one of those to go.
