Extension before the World Cup? Things could happen quickly for Kane and Bayern now | OneFootball

FC Bayern have crowned the season with the double – now the focus is turning to the next key decision. Those in charge want to extend Harry Kane’s contract, and there are many indications that talks could take concrete shape in the coming days

Bayern bosses have been discussing the future of their goalscorer for months. Kane still has a contract until 2027 and has long been one of the club’s most important faces. After his outstanding season with 61 goals in 51 competitive games, there is no doubt at Säbener Straße that the partnership will continue in the long term

So far, however, the Englishman has deliberately played for time, focusing exclusively on his sporting goals with FC Bayern. After winning the DFB Cup and the double, that could now change

Kane wanted to wait for the cup final

According to information from BILD head of soccer Christian Falk, Kane first wanted to get the cup final against VfB Stuttgart behind him before he started thinking intensively about his future

Fittingly, Kane’s father and brother, who also act as his closest advisors, were also present at the final in Berlin. This means that all the conditions are now in place for talks to intensify

There are currently no signs of major differences. Both sides have been emphasizing for months how happy they are with each other. Kane himself has recently stated several times that he feels very comfortable at FC Bayern

Above all, the question of the contract duration seems to be open

According to reports, those responsible are currently discussing two options. On the one hand, a direct extension until 2029 is on the table. Alternatively, a model with a one-year extension and an additional option for a further season is being discussed

The second solution would be particularly interesting for FC Bayern, as it would give the club more flexibility in the long term. Kane, on the other hand, is likely to value planning security above all else

Extension before the World Cup?

It remains to be seen whether the signings will actually be made before the start of the World Cup, but this scenario no longer seems out of the question, according to Falk

Munich would welcome a quick agreement, on the one hand to create clarity at an early stage, and on the other to send an important signal to the team and the public before the tournament

Kane himself had recently stated that he felt no pressure and wanted to conduct the talks calmly. At the same time, the 32-year-old emphasized that both sides were „very happy with each other“

The initial situation therefore clearly speaks for a continuation of the collaboration. After the double, FC Bayern could soon record the next important success – this time off the pitch.
