Bayern Munich is reportedly considering Galatasaray’s Victor Osimhen as a potential replacement for Harry Kane, but the situation is still speculative.
Osimhen has been in top form, scoring 10 goals in the Super Lig and 7 in the Champions League. Vincent Kompany is said to be a fan of Osimhen, and there are internal discussions about possibly moving on from Kane to make way for a new profile up front.

However, sources close to the club suggest that parting ways with Kane is unlikely at this stage.
Kane, who is 32, has been a hit at Bayern, scoring 30 goals in 25 matches this season. The club is keen to extend his stay, and talks are already underway. Kane is open to remaining, and his contract includes a release clause of €65 million, valid until January.
Osimhen, who joined Galatasaray in a €75 million deal, is under contract until 2029. The Turkish club has no indication of selling, and any move would require significant financial outlay. He’s also been linked with Paris Saint-Germain and has interest from Saudi Arabia.
Despite enjoying his time in Istanbul, Osimhen would naturally be drawn to a club of Bayern’s stature at 27. Meanwhile, Kane is attracting interest from Barcelona, England, and Saudi Arabia, with ambition rather than finances shaping his decision.
Bayern’s priority is securing Kane’s long-term future, and only if that changes will Osimhen become a concrete option.
