Harry Kane opens talks to renew Bayern Munich deal

Bayern Munich and Harry Kane have opened talks over a new contract, sporting director Max Eberl said on Monday.

Kane’s current deal runs until the summer of 2027 and the Bundesliga champions are in talks with the England captain over a new contract until 2028 or 2029.

“We are talking to Harry,” Eberl told Sky Germany.

“Everyone knows at some point a decision has to be made,” he added.

Kane has shone for Bayern since arriving from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2023 for around £100 million ($136m).

The 32-year-old has scored 119 goals in 126 appearances and last month became the fastest player to reach 100 goal contributions in Bundesliga history.

“Harry has great confidence in us and he feels comfortable in Munich. He and his family are settled in. Therefore we’ve got absolutely no reason to rush,” Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen said.

Kane is England’s all-time leading scorer with 78 goals in 112 games, and his Premier League total of 213 for Spurs is 47 behind the competition’s top marksman Alan Shearer.
