Bayern close to extending Harry Kane after long negotiations
FC Bayern Munich and the 33‑year‑old English superstar Harry Kane appear to be close to reaching an agreement on a contract extension, as the striker himself publicly confirmed. In an interview he said they are "in good talks" and "close" and that he is "happy there". He added that it will not be long before an official announcement is made.
Other clubs lose interest
With the announced agreement, suitors such as FC Barcelona and Manchester United could finally give up their hopes of a Kane transfer. The "" reported that these clubs would now have to look for alternatives, because the negotiations with Bayern appear to be secured.
A key point of contention remains the contract length. Bayern wants to keep the top scorer only until 2029, while Kane himself is aiming for a contract until 2030 to cover the next World Cup. Both sides are still working on a solution, with no compromise known so far.
For FC Bayern, a swift agreement would be a strong signal. Since his move to Munich, Kane has been one of the defining figures of the team and forms a core building block of the sporting plan. A clear arrangement of his future would give the club additional planning certainty for the coming years.
A prompt official announcement would end the months‑long transfer chatter about one of the world's best strikers. Then the numerous suitors could finally realign their strategies, while Bayern is likely to look forward to further collaboration with its English goal‑getter.
