Harry Kane’s illustrious career at Tottenham has come to an end.
The 30-year-old striker will leave Tottenham for Bundesliga club Bayern Munich, according to Athletic’s David Ornstein, after a long period of speculation. Bayern Munich He reportedly agreed To pay Tottenham $110 million to Kane.
Kane has spent almost his entire career with Tottenham – first at Tottenham’s youth club from 2004-11 before officially breaking into the first team during the 2012-13 season. He was on loan by Tottenham to Leyton Orient, Millwall, Norwich City and Leicester City from 2010 to 2012.
Kane has played 317 regular season games for Tottenham and is the club’s all-time leading scorer and second in all goals scored in the Premier League with 213. He passed Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney on May 6, 2023, and He later surpassed Rooney for the most career goals by an English player in international competition.
Rumors about Kane’s future with Tottenham are not new. He was reportedly believed to be leaving in 2021 After a “gentleman’s agreement” with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy. But the deal did not materialize.
Contact with Bayern intensified this summer after Tottenham fell to eighth place in the English Premier League table, and therefore will miss all European competitions for the 2023-24 season. Bayern Munich’s multiple advances were rejected by Tottenham: First, (a) Reported $76.6 million Transfer fees ballooned in June, reaching more than $100 million in August, according to the company Italian reporter Fabrizio Romano.
Bayern Munich President Uli Hoeness he said earlier this summer that Kane had “clearly indicated that his decision was made” and that “if (Kane) sticks to his word, we’ll sign him. Tottenham will have to capitulate, and we’ll have to get the asking price from Levy”.
Now, that fact has come true after Tottenham accepted Bayern’s biggest bid for Kane.
And Tottenham will have to keep attacking without Kane, who is also the club’s all-time leading goalscorer. Tottenham still includes forwards Son Heung-min, Richarlison, winger Diane Kulusevski, and winger Manor Solomon and midfielder James Maddison. Tottenham also recently appointed Ange Postecoglou to replace Antonio Conte.
Meanwhile, Bayern have one of the most reliable strikers in football as they seek a 12th consecutive Bundesliga title.
