Bayern Munich has received a boost in their negotiations with Harry Kane as his release clause for the summer of 2026 has expired.
Uli Hoeneß, Bayern Munich’s supervisory board member, confirmed the news in an interview, stating that the club is now under no pressure to sell the England international.
Hoeneß emphasized Bayern’s desire to extend Kane’s contract beyond the summer of 2027, saying, “Yes, I’d like to make that clear. Harry is a stroke of luck for us.” The club is looking to secure Kane’s services for the long term, and Hoeneß’s comments suggest they’re willing to make a strong case for him to stay.
Kane has been in excellent form since joining Bayern from Tottenham Hotspur in 2023, scoring 126 goals in 131 appearances. His impressive performances have made him a fan favorite, and the club is eager to keep him on board. The Englishman recently hit 500 career goals in Bayern’s 3-0 win over Werder Bremen.
