'Spot on at Bayern': Matthäus backs Kane to stay | OneFootball

Lothar Matthäus speaks plainly about the Kane rumors and sees the Bayern star as the best striker in the world, perfectly suited at the German record champions.

The speculation about a possible departure of Harry Kane continues unabated – but Lothar Matthäus sees no reason for the English striker to leave FC Bayern. In an interview with RTL/ntv and sport.de, the record national player explained: “Yes, he is currently the best striker in the world. Especially when you look at the goals: he scores everywhere, in every competition. He not only scores goals, but also sets them up. And he works defensively as well – he does that excellently.”

Regarding recent media reports about an alleged release clause that could allow Kane to leave in the summer for 65 million euros, Matthäus had clear words: “Release clause or not. It’s not a mandatory clause. He can stay at Bayern.”

The 32-year-old is perfectly at home in Munich: “He feels very comfortable there, he’s become top scorer in Germany twice, is on the verge of his third golden boot. He’s winning titles with Bayern – something he didn’t do with Tottenham. I don’t think he could feel more comfortable anywhere else than at FC Bayern.”

There is also a sense of calm at Säbener Straße. Sporting director Max Eberl made it clear: “The way he presents himself, the way he behaves, shows that he is fully committed. He’s old enough to make his own decisions, clause or not. We want to work with him for a long time.”

Coach Vincent Kompany struck a similar note and praised his superstar’s attitude: “He is in an excellent phase. I don’t want to open the door to another discussion. Harry wants to win titles – and he can do that at FC Bayern. That’s the only focus.”

The message is clear: Despite the release clause and Premier League rumors, Bayern are counting on a long future with their star striker.
