Harry Kane has now responded to speculation linking him with a move to Barcelona, who see him as a Robert Lewandowski successor.
Harry Kane’s future remains uncertain, with reports continuing to link the England captain with a possible move away from Germany as speculation over his next step refuses to die down.
He has impressed with Bayern Munich since sealing a move away from Tottenham Hotspur three seasons ago, scoring over a century of goals while finally bringing an end to his long wait for silverware.
There is also a sense that he has unfinished business in England, especially as he sits 48 goals away from surpassing Alan Shearer’s record as the Premier League’s all-time top scorer.
Harry Kane is happy at Bayern Munich
Spurs are not the only ones showing interest in Kane’s situation, as Barcelona is also understood to be monitoring the forward’s situation closely.
The Spanish outfit views the England captain as a natural successor to Robert Lewandowski, and the forward has now responded to those links while revealing a telling detail about his contract situation.
Kane addressed the reports when speaking to BILD, making it clear that no official approach has been made and that Bayern Munich have not yet opened formal discussions over an extension of his current deal.

He said: “I have not had any contact with anyone, nobody has contacted me. I feel very comfortable in the current situation, even though we have not yet discussed my situation with Bayern.
“There is no rush. I am really happy in Munich. You can see that in the way I am playing. If there is contact, then we will see. But I am not thinking about the new season yet. First up is the World Cup in the summer. And it is very unlikely that anything will change after this season.”
When asked whether Bayern Munich supporters should be concerned, his answer was short and to the point: “I do not think so.”
Harry Kane clause and Tottenham first refusal option
The former Tottenham striker has a clause in his Bayern Munich contract that will allow him to leave for a little over half of what the German champions paid for him.
The clause is one that Kane himself must activate, and he could therefore be allowed to depart for around £57m should he choose to trigger it.
Tottenham also have a first refusal option, giving the club the right to match any bids that arrive for the forward, which places them in a strong position if a return to north London ever becomes a possibility.
The forward is unlikely to move in the winter window, and any significant movement will only come after the 2026 World Cup.
