Harry Kane says new Bayern Munich contract is close

Harry Kane says new Bayern Munich contract is close

Harry Kane expects to extend his Bayern Munich contract within the next few days, he said at a news conference ahead of a Champions League match in Madrid.

The England captain joined Bayern from Tottenham in 2023 on a four-year deal that is due to expire next summer.

He says the main terms are settled, while lawyers work through smaller details.

Speculation about a return to the Premier League had grown as Kane’s current deal nears its end.

Kane won the Ballon d’Or last week after scoring 73 goals for club and country last season and winning two trophies in Germany.

He also said he would trade another individual award for a Champions League title with Bayern, underlining his focus on team success.

Bayern drew 2-2 with Borussia Dortmund in Kane’s first match after the award, and the club is dealing with several injuries and coach Vincent Kompany’s absence.

The contract is expected to be signed within days, though Kane did not give a precise date.
