The rumor of Harry Kane (34, Bayern Munich) returning to England has effectively come to an end. The expectations of his former team Tottenham Hotspur went up in smoke.
The BBC, a leading British newspaper, said on the 28th (Korea Standard Time), "There is little chance that Kane will return to Tottenham. Munich is confident of extending Kane's contract, which expires in 2027, he said. "Munich general manager Max Ebele also said he is in talks with Kane."
According to reports, when Kane moved to Munich in 2023, he was likely to return to England. The prevailing view was that Kane, the second-highest scorer (213 goals) in the EPL, would return a few years later to break Alan Shearer's record (260 goals).
But the situation has changed drastically. Kane is deeply satisfied with his life and career in Munich. According to the BBC, Kane had already expressed his intention to stay in October through local media, saying, "At the time of the transfer, I thought I would go back one day, but now that I have spent time in Munich, I have less thought about it."
It was the win and comfortable life in Germany that captured Kane's heart. Last season, Kane led Munich to the Bundesliga championship and lifted his first major trophy of his career. At the time, Kane said, "I only imagined it before I picked up the trophy, but after experiencing it, my will to go to the bigger stage has become stronger."
The peaceful life of the family is also a decisive factor. "Kane always needed a bodyguard in London with the media and fans' attention," the BBC said. In Munich, he enjoys a free daily life without invasion of privacy, he said. "Kane's wife Kate and four children have completely adapted to life in Munich. Munich Honorary Chairman Uli Hönes also said he was confident that Kane would remain in the team after 2027.
Kane has continued his legendary move since joining Munich, scoring 115 goals in 121 games. This season, he also scored 30 official goals under Vincent Kompany, leading his team's league lead.
The Tottenham Son Heung-min (Los Angeles FC) and Kane duo reunion, which fans expected, has disappeared into history. Son Heung-min and Kane were soul partners who set the record for the most joint goals (47 goals) in their EPL career when they were at Tottenham. However, as Son Heung-min left for the U.S. stage and even Kane showed his willingness to stay in Munich, the possibility of the two players sharing the same team again became slim.
Kane has now chosen the path for the EPL legend to remain Munich's legend. "BBC" said, "It seems more important to leave Kane a legacy in a European big club than to break a personal record," suggesting that the renewal of the contract is imminent.
