Highlights:
- Bayern Munich have set Tottenham a deadline of midnight on Friday to accept a club-record offer in excess of €100 million ($110m) for striker Harry Kane, sources have told ESPN. Sources have told ESPN that Bayern’s latest bid comprises €100m guaranteed with up to approximately €20m in add-ons.
- Sources have told ESPN that Kane has no interest in signing a new deal with Spurs this summer, leaving the club to make a decision as to whether they cash in now or risk losing their prized asset for nothing at the end of the season.
- Face-to-face talks have taken place this week between Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy and Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen, and there is optimism that Kane is open to joining the Bundesliga champions if the two clubs can agree a fee.
Watch Spurs do nothing and let the deadline pass, then wonder why he doesn’t sign a new contract
For some reason I feel like this is the most likely scenario. From the start it has felt like lose-lose-lose was always how it was going to end. Spurs gambles on another year of Kane but misses out on CL anyway, Kane wastes a year of his prime, Bayern doesn’t get a good striker, Kane leaves for free next summer and Spurs get £0 for him.
I really hope I’m wrong though. I’d love to see him at Bayern.
