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.

    Some of us (totally not me) think that if Kane doesn’t move to Bayern this summer he will be a free-agent and very likely a United player next summer, so I shared the news, even though he isn’t a United player.

      No way he waits another year without a trophy, aging to 31, just for a free move to United to have a chance to win something. And Tottenham letting him go for free??

      At least with Bayern, that’s a free league cup and competition in Champions league.

        Gives up on beating the Shearer record though?

        Personally, I don’t understand why he’d want the German league title which means as much as a Ligue 1 title when he instead could smash the goal record in the Premier League
