Bayern Munich re-enter race to sign Harry Kane, set to make offer to Tottenham

Bayern Munich have held new rounds of talks internally to establish Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane as their top target this summer, according to Sky Germany.

The Bavarians had discussed the idea of the England international earlier but dismissed it due to his age and Tottenham’s asking price.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has demanded £100 million from suitors for his prized striker even though the player has only 12 months left on his current deal.

Bayern have decided to pursue Kane again after receiving the green light that he would be open to moving to Germany this summer.

Manchester United were in the race to sign the striker. He is United manager Erik ten Hag’s top target to lead their forward line.

Even though Kane reportedly wanted to move to United and stay in England to become the all-time Premier League top scorer, he has not forced a transfer move.

United have since pulled out of the race for the Tottenham star. They have moved on to other targets such as midfielder Mason Mount and Atalanta’s Rasmus Hojlund.

Real Madrid were also chasing Kane following Karim Benzema’s departure, but Kylian Mbappe’s availability forced them to divert their attention.

The Red Devils could miss out on Kane altogether, with the Bundesliga champions preparing to proceed with an offer.

Bayern desperately need a striker. The lack of a world-class centre-forward was one of the reasons they were not up to their usual standard in the Bundesliga last season.

They also struggled in their Champions League exit to Manchester City, with their lack of a top-class striker making it easy for their opponents’ defence.

Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel knows all about Kane from his time in the Premier League when he managed Chelsea.

Die Rekordmeister will move to sign the Walthamstow-born attacker for him.
