Will Kane follow Kompany? Bayern CEO Dreesen gives contract update | OneFootball

Harry Kane has long become the face of FC Bayern. Since his transfer from Tottenham, the English superstar has thrilled with goals, leadership quality, and humility – and symbolizes the new calm and class under coach Vincent Kompany. Now, CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen has spoken concretely about the striker's future for the first time.

In an interview with DAZN, the Bayern CEO made it clear that a contract extension is not an urgent issue at the moment, but it is naturally on the agenda in the long term. "Harry and we have already said quite a bit about it," Dreesen explained during the CL match against Club Brugge. "He is taking his time, focused on his games and on us winning titles. That’s what we want too."

With this, Dreesen sends a clear message: The record champion wants to conduct the talks about a possible extension with care – without media pressure or time pressure. "We will talk during the season," announced the CEO.

Since his arrival in the summer of 2023, Kane has fulfilled almost everything the officials had hoped for at FC Bayern. The 32-year-old impresses not only with his remarkable goal-scoring rate but also with his professional demeanor and down-to-earth nature – virtues that have quickly won him sympathies in Munich.

Kane himself feels at home in the Bavarian capital. The captain of the English national team has repeatedly emphasized how comfortable he feels both professionally and personally. His family has settled in well, and the harmony between player, coach, and club management could hardly be greater.

Under Vincent Kompany, the striker is flourishing once again. His role is clearly defined, his statistics are outstanding – and his influence on the team is enormous. No wonder the officials want to bind the Englishman to the club for the long term.

Bayern relies on calm and trust

Despite the sporting success, FC Bayern does not want to act hastily regarding Kane. Dreesen's statements reveal that the club is relying on strategic calmness. Unlike in the past, when contract talks often came with public pressure and rumors, they want to approach this chapter calmly and respectfully.

That Kane wants to stay in Munich is considered an open secret. According to BILD, Bayern wants to extend the contract, which runs until 2027, by at least one year until 2028.
