Kane opens up about contract talks with Bayern Munich | OneFootball

Bayern Munich continued their flawless run of games with their fifth win in three matches, thrashing Werder Bremen 4-0 this Friday (26th), in a match where Harry Kane scored twice and reached 100 goals wearing the Bavarian team's shirt.

Kane scored his 99th and 100th goals for Bayern Munich in his 104th match for the club, which he joined before the 2023-2024 season. No player has managed to reach 100 goals in so little time for a club in the top five European leagues. Cristiano Ronaldo, at Real Madrid, and Erling Haaland, at Manchester City, reached this milestone after 105 games for those teams.

“For me, the goal is to reach the next 100, and I hope to do it even faster,” said the star of the night.

Open to Renewal

After the match, Kane spoke to the press about his contract renewal process, considering that it expires at the end of the 2026-2027 season.

“I know there are a lot of rumors. I take that as a compliment, but all I can say is that I’m happy here and my family is happy,” Kane insisted.

“These negotiations can happen. They haven’t happened yet, and if they do, we’ll simply have an open and honest conversation about my situation and the future of this club,” explained the English national team’s top scorer.

“I still have two years (on my contract), it’s not like I’m in my last year and someone is nervous. I’m in a good situation, and so is the club. I think they’re happy with me and I’m happy here,” he assured.

Lethal Top Scorer

In the scoring charts, Kane now leads with 10 goals, six ahead of the group of players tied in second place.

Kane’s tally in Friday’s match could have been higher, but goalkeeper Karl Hein intercepted him on several occasions.

Kane’s constant presence is in penalty kicks: since joining Bayern, he has converted all 18 penalties he has taken for the German giants in the Bundesliga.

Kompany decided to substitute Kane ten minutes from the end, bringing on Senegalese Nicolas Jackson, which earned a standing ovation for the star of the match, who was rested in the final stretch with the imminent trip to Cyprus to face Pafos in the Champions League.

After this Champions League match, Bayern will have another important game in the 6th round, against another team fighting for the top spots, Eintracht Frankfurt.

Bayern’s Situation

With 15 points and 22 goals scored, having conceded only three, Bayern have had a blistering start to the Bundesliga season, giving Vincent Kompany’s team confidence ahead of the trip to Cyprus to face Paphos next week in the second round of the Champions League.

In the Bundesliga, Bayern are five points ahead of second-placed Borussia Dortmund, who visit Mainz (13th) this Saturday.

Jonathan Tah opened the scoring against Werder Bremen in the 22nd minute, and Kane extended the lead for the home team by converting a penalty just before halftime. In the second half, the English star scored again by finishing off a counterattack in the 65th minute, and Konrad Laimer closed the scoring in the 87th minute, making it 4-0.
