Will FC Bayern sign Harry Kane in the summer?

The German record champion is said to have an interest again and again.

Oliver Kahn is now commenting on this.

Munich

– Oliver Kahn was in a chatting mood on Tuesday.

While most FC Bayern Munich players are in Qatar for the 2022 World Cup, there is already brisk training going on on Säbener Straße.

However, the first league game will not take place until the new year on January 20th at RB Leipzig.

Until then, Kahn has plenty of time to comment on the transfer rumors about the German record champions.

FC Bayern: Kahn rejects Pavard's departure

Benjamin Pavard's idea of ​​emigration was initially clearly rejected by the CEO.

And Kahn also had a comment on a player who is repeatedly traded on Säbener Straße.

In an interview with Sky, the 53-year-old was asked about FC Bayern's increasing interest in Harry Kane, but was rather daring.

"It always gets put in my mouth that I like Harry Kane so much.

Of course he's a very good player, but there are also many other very good players," said Kahn.

FC Bayern: Kahn puts Kane rumors into perspective

The rumor about Kane and FC Bayern has been popping up on Säbener Straße since Robert Lewandowski left.

According to various media reports, the captain of the English national team should be Bayern Munich's number one transfer target in the summer of 2023.

"I read that all over the newspapers and media too: Oliver Kahn and Harry Kane and Hasan and Harry Kane.

So: We deal with a lot of players, but it's not right to always talk about players who are under contract with other clubs.

Again: We have a very good squad that is doing an excellent job at the moment,” Kahn put the interest into perspective.

FC Bayern: Kane's contract expires in the summer of 2024

However, one thing is also certain: since Lewandowski left, FC Bayern has only had a classic number nine in Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting.

In addition, the Cameroonian's contract expires in the summer.

Harry Kane, on the other hand, is still under contract with Tottenham Hotspur until June 30, 2024, but is said to have recently put talks on a contract extension on hold – also because of a possible interest from FC Bayern.

Should the Londoners still want to make money from their captain's departure and Kane actually does not renew his contract, a summer transfer is the most likely option.

FC Bayern: “No” contact with Niclas Füllkrug yet

Another name that has recently been traded on Säbener Straße is World Cup surprise Niclas Füllkrug.

Appropriately, his current club, Werder Bremen, would consider a sale if there was an “immoral offer”.

When Kahn was asked whether FC Bayern had already contacted Füllkrug, the 52-year-old replied with a laugh: "Not yet."

So Harry Kane, Niclas Füllkrug or a contract extension with Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting?

Those responsible for the club will definitely not get bored during the winter break, even without the stress of deadlines.
