Bayern Munich are in “intensive talks” with Harry Kane over his future, amid reports of interest from Saudi Arabian clubs.

The 32-year-old England striker’s current contract expires in 2027, and Bayern Munich are eager to keep him beyond that.

Bayern’s board member for sport, Max Eberl, confirmed the ongoing discussions, saying, “We’re talking, that doesn’t mean negotiations have started. We’re in intensive talks with Harry Kane, then the next steps will follow.”

German sources report that Kane is high on the wish list for Saudi Arabian clubs, with at least one side preparing a “highly lucrative offer” to bring him to the desert. The reported €60-70 million release clause in Kane’s contract may still be triggered until the end of February.

Kane has been in excellent form for Bayern, scoring 45 goals and providing 9 assists in 40 matches this season.

Bayern’s sporting director, Christoph Freund, expressed optimism about Kane’s future at the club, saying, “He’s a perfect player for us, and Harry feels very comfortable in Munich, with the team and his family. That’s why we hope he’ll stay in Munich for a few more years.”
