TOP STORY: Bayern make Kane their No. 1 target
Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane is Bayern Munich’s No. 1 transfer target, according to kicker.
Kane, 29, wanted to leave the club to join Manchester City in 2021 but Spurs’ valuation of £150 million was never met. City signed Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund for €60m during the last transfer window and Kane has appeared happier under new manager Antonio Conte, despite the fact his contract expires in June 2024.
Bayern saw key striker Robert Lewandowski move to Barcelona for €45m this summer, and the German champions see Kane as the ideal long-term replacement.
However, the England international could sign a new deal at Spurs, as he is chasing Alan Shearer’s Premier League goal-scoring record and needs another 71 to reach the 260 total.
