Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane is one of the world’s biggest superstars and this season is going down as his best yet. Beyond the goals — he’s chasing the all-time Bundesliga record, no big deal — he is doing everything, all over the pitch, and coming into his own as one of the team’s most authoritative voices of leadership.
Kane’s importance to Bayern means that the club would be fools not to pursue a contract renewal to keep the England captain in Bavaria. Not that it will be easy: after all,
Kane is already a top earner, and with his next contract, he could rightly command even higher wages.
For now, it is early. Bayern is at the stage of negotiations where it is just about making clear how much they appreciate the player.
Said club CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen (captured via @iMiaSanMia): “Harry still has a contract until 2027. The release clause has expired at the end of January. We have a fantastic relationship with Harry. He feels very comfortable in Munich with his family. We’ll discuss the future very calmly before next season. We’re extremely happy with him.”
After some recent dramatics, a calm round of contract talks is just what Bayern needs. We will see, though, just how straightforward they will actually turn out to be.
