New deal for Kane? Freund reveals Bayern’s plans | OneFootball

Harry Kane's contract with FC Bayern runs until 2027, but the Munich-based club is quite willing to extend it prematurely. Sporting Director Christoph Freund made clear hints after the clear Champions League victory in Cyprus.

With 20 scorer points (17 goals, 3 assists) Harry Kane has made a breathtaking start to the new season. The 32-year-old is indispensable from Munich's offense: "Every three days you see how incredibly important he is for the team and how much joy and fun he gets from playing football," Freund raved after the 5:1 win at FC Pafos.

The sporting director emphasized: "He is an important factor for FC Bayern and we are very happy to have him with us. We hope that this will continue for a long time."

Max Eberl, the board member for sport, recently expressed similar sentiments, showing long-term confidence in Kane as a focal point in the attack: "Harry doesn't seem to be old at all, he seems to have fallen into a fountain of youth with how active he is on the pitch. For us, this is absolutely conceivable."

Extension yes – more salary no



According to BILD, the record champion has internally set a clear condition: Kane should not receive a salary increase even with a new contract. With an annual salary of around 24 million euros, the captain of the English national team is already one of the top earners at Säbener Straße.

There is also another spicy clause: According to reports, Kane could leave the club next summer thanks to a release clause for 65 million euros. However, it currently seems unlikely that the 32-year-old will actually use this loophole. Kane himself has repeatedly emphasized how much he enjoys life in Munich and the shared goal of winning titles.

The signs are thus clearly pointing towards a continuation of the partnership – and FC Bayern hopes that its exceptional striker will stay with the club for a long time.
