Bayern extension? Kane not interested in return to English football | OneFootball

With his brace against Werder Bremen, Harry Kane broke the 100-goal mark in a Bayern shirt – and he’s already looking ahead. The English superstar feels right at home in Munich and isn’t ruling out extending his contract beyond 2027.

In the 4-0 win over Bremen, Kane once again became the match-winner. With his 99th and 100th goals for the Munich side, he surpassed the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Erling Haaland, who took longer to reach this milestone for their clubs. “Hard work” is the secret to his success, the 32-year-old explained after the match.

For Kane, it’s a phase where everything just fits. “I’m playing better than ever, I feel fitter than ever,” he emphasized. In addition to his goals, he impresses as a team player – initiating attacks, providing assists, and working hard off the ball. “It’s really not just the goals,” praised Joshua Kimmich, “but also how he helps the team. That’s truly exceptional.”

There has been ongoing speculation about a possible return to the Premier League. After all, English legend Alan Shearer still holds the goal record with 260 goals. When Kane moved to Munich, he had 213 goals and seemed to have his eye on the record for a long time.

But the star striker now sees things more relaxed: “When I came here, I probably thought about the record. Since I’ve been here, I’ve been having so much fun. Just playing at this level, being part of big nights, in the Champions League. I don’t just want to focus on individual things, but keep pushing myself and see how far we can go.”

His focus is clearly on FC Bayern. “I always take it as a compliment, but all I can say is that my focus is here,” he said about the rumors of a return to England. He also recently experienced CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen as “damn cheerful.”

Extension Not Ruled Out

Kane’s contract runs until 2027. Talks about an extension haven’t taken place yet, but the Englishman isn’t ruling them out: “I think they’re happy with me, and I’m happy with them. So those talks could happen. If they do, we’ll just talk openly and honestly about where I stand and what the club’s future looks like.”

The signs could hardly be better. Kane is enjoying his role in Munich, chasing titles with Bayern in every competition, and looking to the future with optimism. It’s already becoming clear: the striker could stay with the German record champions longer than his original contract stipulates.
