Bayern Munich’s CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen was interviewed by Welt am Sonntag — a Sunday edition of the Welt newspaper. Among other topics, Dreesen was asked about Harry Kane, more specifically his contract that ends in 2027.
Kane mentioned this week that he could see himself staying at Bayern longer than his current contract lasts. Welt asked if Bayern are taking Kane up on his proposal and looking into contract extension talks. As reported by @iMiaSanMia, Dreesen responded, “Harry feels completely
comfortable. We’ll talk about it at the appropriate time. At the moment, our focus is only on the current season.”
Just weeks before, it looked inevitable that Kane would leave at the end of this season, as rumors came out that he was all but surely returning to England. Tottenham fans were also salivating as they learned that Kane’s contract included a priority transfer clause that could see the England National Team Captain return to his boyhood club.
The Welt reporter continued the interview by asking Dreesen about Kane’s age — namely that he will be 34 when his contract ends. Bayern does not seem to care much about that number. “Contrary to all the doomsday prophecies two years ago, Harry is getting better every year. If this continues, the answer is clear.”
Without saying it outright, Dressen all but confirms that they are realistically interested in engaging with Harry Kane in extension talks. What do you think Kane will do? Tell us your thoughts in the comments.
