Tottenham legend Harry Kane has a £54million release clause in his Bayern Munich contract that can be activated in January
Harry Kane says he hopes Tottenham can win more trophies following last season's Europa League triumph - but he has also reiterated that he is currently not thinking about a return to north London. Last month, Spurs boss Thomas Frank made it clear he would welcome the England captain back to N17 with open arms.
That prompted Kane to address his future and in doing so, he revealed he was not only settled in Germany but additionally, he was also open to extending his contract with Bayern Munich. Kane's current deal with Bayern is up in the summer of 2027 and there is a £54million release clause that can be activated in January should any English club wish to bring him back to the Premier League.
However, speaking to The Daily Mail, Kane has now reaffirmed that an emotional return to Tottenham isn't currently at the forefront of his mind - even if he was delighted by the club's Europa League heroics.
He said: "I’m not sure [if he'll go back]. I’m very happy here in Munich. It’s not something I'm thinking about. It’ll always be 'we' [when speaking about Spurs] because I spent my whole life there.
"I’m a fan of them and will always watch them and see how they’re getting on. They will always be a part of my life for sure but as for now, I’m loving it here. It was great to see [them win a trophy], I’ve got a lot of friends there with the players and staff.
"We know how long we waited and how close we’d come in the past so it was big for everyone - the fans, the club and all involved to have that feeling and get that one over the line. That’s always important and hopefully they can push on and win more."
Kane currently has 213 Premier League goals to his name meaning he is just 47 goals shy of breaking Alan Shearer's all-time goalscoring record.
But even if the 32-year-old was to return to his homeland and break that record, there is no guarantee it would last as Erling Haaland is hitting the back of the net for fun.
The Norwegian, who has 94 top-flight goals to his name from 104 appearances, will soon enter the Premier League's iconic 100 Club and after signing a new bumper Manchester City contract that will run until 2034 - he has no intention of slowing down.
Bayern frontman Kane is also arguably in the greatest form of his career having already plundered 21 goals for club and country this season following last night's brace against Latvia. Given he's firing on all cylinders, it's extremely difficult to envisage him switching clubs with a World Cup also on the horizon.
