BAYERN MUNICH have reportedly made Harry Kane a “serious contender” as a top transfer target should he decide not renew his contract.
The striker, who is closing in on becoming England’s all-time top scorer, has been in red-hot form for Tottenham this term.
He goes into tonight’s showdown against Manchester United at Old Trafford with ten goals and two assists to his name already with Spurs third in the Premier League.
The 29-year-old tried to force through a move to Manchester City just over a year ago but Spurs dug their heels in and kept their talisman.
He was then linked with Bayern during the recent summer window, but once again Tottenham refused to do business and insisted that the star was going nowhere.
However, speculation continues to rumble on over Kane’s future due to his contract ending in 2024.
He would then be able to move abroad and leave for nothing, which could force Antonio Conte’s side to cash in at the end of this season rather than risk losing him on a free.
A fresh report from Sky Germany is now claiming that Bayern are ready and waiting to swoop if no new deal is signed as they assessed recent transfer rumours regarding the Bundesliga giants.
It also adds that Kane could be interested in order to achieve his ambition of winning silverware.
The superstar, who is yet to make a decision on an extension, was asked ahead of last week’s Champions League match with Eintracht Frankfurt about the Bayern speculation.
He said: “I’m focusing on Tottenham Hotspur and trying to do our best.
“For sure Bayern are a top, top club but all my concentration is on Tottenham.”
