I think the evidence I'd use to support my argument that Levy is trying to call Kane's bluff is; have you ever seen a deal reported with such consistency about how it's now down to the player to decide? Sure it's mentioned here and there but look how explicit it is being said.
Whatever you may think of Levy, he found a way to make this situation win/win for himself. He either got the deal or he's going to force Kane to show his hand. If Kane stays, the worst thing he can do for himself is be pressured into signing a new deal. If you want to stay, stay but keep your leverage.
In all fairness if he does decide to stay, he pretty much has a whole season to decide whether he wants to stay at the club for the rest of his career or make the move to pretty much any club on the planet next summer.
This seems to be a win/win situation for Harry too IMO.
