Exclusive: Harry Kane's Groundbreaking Transfer Talks with Bayern Munich Executives in London

According to Sky Germany, Bayern Munich's chief executive and technical director are headed to London for a meeting with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy regarding a potential transfer deal for Harry Kane. On Monday morning, Jan-Christian Dreesen and Marco Neppe arrived at Munich airport to catch their flight to England.

The clubs were supposed to have a meeting last week, but it was rescheduled. However, there has been ongoing communication between the two sides regarding the future of England captain Kane.

Although there is still a difference in valuation between Bayern and Spurs, Kane is willing to have formal discussions with the German club if Spurs believe it is a favorable agreement.

The German champions firmly believe that Tottenham's all-time leading goal scorer is eager to join their team. Kane has chosen not to renew his contract with Tottenham during this summer, expressing a desire to join Bayern Munich over other clubs that have shown interest.

Paris St-Germain, the reigning champions of France, are considering the possibility of signing Kane from Tottenham in the event that the club decides to part ways with him. Despite their interest, the Parisian club is determined not to engage in a competitive bidding process. Throughout the summer, Tottenham has consistently reiterated their stance that Kane is not available for transfer. With one year remaining on his existing contract with Spurs, Kane has never expressed any desire to leave the club.

Spurs run the risk of retaining him after the window and potentially losing a top-notch goal scorer for free to a Premier League opponent next year. That's why Spurs are engaging in discussions with foreign clubs who have shown interest.

But what occurs if Tottenham fails to reach an agreement on a transfer fee with Bayern? In that case, Kane will continue focusing solely on his football while remaining at Tottenham.

If that situation arises, what elements might persuade him to prolong his contract further into the season? The straightforward response is that it would necessitate Spurs transforming into a team with the ability to secure championships. That is the risk in front of Levy. Otherwise, he can anticipate the English captain to have a plethora of options among both domestic and international clubs.

Analysis: Stick or twist - Levy faces a huge gamble

We News' Paul Gilmour @skysportspaulg:

"The fact Kane won't sign a new deal this summer will only increase the prospect of the England captain being on the move in the coming weeks.

"With the added factor of Thomas Tuchel's determination for this outcome and Bayern's efforts in negotiating a favorable financial arrangement with Spurs, the momentum is leaning towards Kane's departure. However, it should be noted that Kane is currently content focusing on his football at Tottenham, and the possibility of extending his contract in the future remains a possibility."

Daniel Levy faces a critical decision in the upcoming weeks, as he weighs the possibility of a contract extension and the potential for Ange Postecoglou and his team to succeed with an attacking style that resembles that of championship contenders. If he answers negatively to these pivotal inquiries, the Premier League may bid adieu to a prolific goal scorer, with Tottenham utilizing the funds to enhance the overall equilibrium within their playing squad.

Analysis: Kane a good fit for Bayern - and Tuchel wants him

European football expert Kevin Hatchard on We News:

Harry Kane would be an ideal addition to Bayern Munich, seen as a significant achievement securing the captain of England for the Bundesliga. The potential impact goes beyond Bayern alone, with discussions focusing on the positive influence it would have on the entire league. He is regarded as someone who can elevate their offensive capabilities to new heights, considering the club's existing talent. The urgency for a positive narrative is evident, particularly after just narrowly holding onto their Bundesliga title, experiencing a defeat by Manchester City in the Champions League, and the endorsement by Thomas Tuchel.

Bayern's interest in him has been longstanding, not a sudden development. However, Tuchel holds more influence at Bayern compared to previous coaches, given the departures of CEO Oliver Kahn and sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic. Tuchel's high level of respect within the organization further contributes to his power.

Bayern perceives Kane as the long-term successor to Robert Lewandowski, which serves as an advantageous model for Kane. Lewandowski consistently scored goals in the Bundesliga and played a vital role in the team's success in the Champions League.
