Harry Kane could agree a new Bayern Munich contract within the next month, with negotiations continuing positively between the club and the England captain’s representatives.
Kane’s advisers have been in Germany for further discussions over an extension, and there is optimism on both sides that an agreement can be reached. If the current progress continues, the situation could be settled within the next few weeks.
The 33-year-old is already contracted to Bayern Munich until 2027, but the club want to secure his future beyond that date. The expectation is that any new deal would run until at least 2029.
Bayern are satisfied that Kane’s consistently high performances justify his estimated £400,000-a-week contract and are keen to retain one of the world’s leading marksmen for the longer term.
Kane would have a wide range of options across the world if he decided to leave Bayern Munich. However, his current focus is on winning more trophies in Germany, with the club seen as capable of helping him fulfil one of his major remaining ambitions: Champions League success.
There is no current indication that Kane is actively considering alternative clubs, nor that he has a strong desire to return to the Premier League.
Kane had a release clause in his previous Bayern Munich contract that could have been activated in January. He ultimately decided not to use it as he became increasingly settled in Munich.
The England captain is understood to be content with life in Germany, while his continued goalscoring form has strengthened Bayern’s desire to keep him. How long he intends to remain in Munich should become clearer once the negotiations are concluded.
For now, the signs are increasingly encouraging for Bayern Munich, with the next few weeks potentially bringing a resolution to Kane’s contract situation.
