Bayern Munich have reportedly told Harry Kane to avoid signing a new contract with Tottenham as they plot a move for the England captain.
Kane, 29, has five goals from six Premier League games this season, and needs 12 more this campaign to reach 200 career Premier League goals.
With 73 international caps and 50 goals in his country’s shirt, his legacy in England is secured, but with a distinct lack of silverware up until this point, it is a fair question to wonder how much longer he will remain content at Tottenham.
TOP STORY – BAYERN MUNICH PLAN BLOCKBUSTER HARRY KANE MOVE
German publication Bild claims reports about Bayern’s interest in Kane following the departure of Robert Lewandowski had plenty of substance, and that their desire to land the striker has only intensified.
With Kane’s contract tying him to Tottenham until 2024, the report states the Bavarian giants will plan another move at the end of the season when he enters the last year of his deal, putting Spurs in a position where they need to sell or risk losing him on a free transfer.
Bayern are yet to lose a game this season, and no Bundesliga team has scored more than their 17 goals, but after an explosive start they now sit third after 1-1 draws against Borussia Monchengladbach and Union Berlin.
