Bayern Munich remain confident they will tie Harry Kane down to a new long-term contract despite growing interest from some of Europe’s biggest clubs, with Tottenham among the sides tracking his situation, TEAMtalk understands.
We understand Bayern have been in discussions with Kane’s representatives for several months and, internally, there is little concern over the outcome.Sources close to the German champions insist it is viewed as a matter of “when, not if” Kane signs fresh terms. That confidence has not stopped clubs from monitoring developments, though.
TEAMtalk can reveal intermediaries have been actively sounding out potential options for Kane and making both the player and his representatives aware of the interest, although there is no suggestion those individuals are acting directly on Kane’s behalf.
The Saudi Pro League continues to admire the England skipper, but sources indicate Kane has no interest in making that move at this stage of his career. A switch to Major League Soccer is viewed far more favourably, although that is considered a long-term possibility rather than an immediate option.
Across Europe, interest remains significant. We understand Barcelona have made enquiries regarding Kane’s contractual situation, while Real Madrid have also requested to be kept informed should circumstances change over the coming months.
