Harry Kane | Bayern Munich player

If it means we won't get a CB and CM - No Thanks!

Harry is the one who will have to take the choice. I'm so tired of everybody needing to do the work for him.
If he'll choose to go to Bayern - fine BUT if he'll choose to stay at spurs than we'll go for him in January.

Given he can leave on a free if it were me I’d stay knock another 20+ goals closer to the record and then have the pick of some top sides.

I don’t mean next as in 2023/24 I mean surely it makes more sense to wait until 2024/25 season so sign Kane on the free and save the ~£90m fee.

The reason I starred Pavard is because I’d sign him for the now. Then add Kane depending on Højlund’s development.

For me that makes the most sense. Rather than now trying to find that amount to bring someone in a year early. And if that’s not something Kane wants to wait for then move on.

Ah yeah I mean if Kane was available on a free then by all means go for it, it would make sense for us, if it's still needed depending on how hojlund develops over the season. But getting him now doesn't make sense for either party at that price IMO.

Could he not come back in a couple of years and try and get the record? No idea how long he will play for but Spurs if they are clever could get some kind of cheap buyback clause for the future.

It'd be pretty awful business by Bayern to allow a cheap buyout on what would be by far their record transfer. If he goes, he'd likely go for 4 years at a minimum no? I can certainly picture a romantic end-of-career return to Spurs but he needs 48 goals to beat Shearer's record, it'd be impressive if he's still at a 25-goal a season player at the age of 35 or so. I reckon if he goes, the record goes too.
 
Does Kane make Bayern one of the main CL contenders again? They fell off a little in the last 2 years.

PL record + Spurs greatest ever player > Bundesliga and a German Cup

I don' think his legacy would be the same. Highest PL goal scorer and Spurs legend.. but who never won the PL or the CL. He'd win the League Cup at best. Does he want to be remembered as that? Even that record might not stand decades later. Even Shearer has a PL. I think for players of his quality, big trophies matter. At Bayern he is definitely winning the league, and maybe even a CL in 3-4 years. He can comeback at 35 and still get the PL record if everything falls in place.

If I were a Spurs fan I would wonder very strongly about how good this money will be to the club. There's no suggestion there's anyone close to Kane's level available on the market, let alone for that price.

By letting him go they are massively signalling there is a downsizing of expectations.

I wonder if they wouldn't be better off keeping him another year as he's their best bet of reaching a top five finish and getting into the CL next season, you never know, if they achieve that he might even be considering extending his stay.

Nobody in their right senses would gamble a whopping 95million, when Kane had probably signalled that he isn't keen on signing an extension.

It is a brilliant thing for Spurs to get so much money for a 30-year-old in the final year of his contract. They wouldn't have finished within CL spots even if Kane had stayed on. Kane or no Kane doesn't matter substantively, if you look at it that way. However, the deal could have been done a few weeks earlier, for them to get a proper replacement before the season starts. It is a lose-lose situation for Levy if he wasted a few weeks trying to squeeze an extra 10m from Bayern, when he will probably cough up a similar sum (extra) just because players are usually more expensive after the season has already begun.

Pretty sure they're currently 2nd favourites to win the CL with the bookies, behind City.
 
I would very much like us to match the €100M and see what happens. Rasmus is apparently injured for quite some time, and Martial isn't reliable, so we really do need another striker.

Records are temporary but medals are permanent. Haaland could break Kane's record in 5 years at the rate he is going.

At best maybe Harry could get a cheese named after him at the Spurs Stadium's cheese shop.

It's a great move for him and i can't understand how anyone doesn't see that.

Of to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world and challenge for the top titles.

He already plays for one of the biggest clubs in the world that challenges for the top titles though.

Yeah like I said a couple of times earlier but with most of next summer's budget. That still allows us to stick to plan for this one. I don't know why I am even suggesting something so utterly mental that our board wouldn't even consider.

Maybe because I am desperate for us to try it just to see whether it gave Kane second thoughts. If it doesn't well then at least we couldn't have done anything more.

That's what he should do imo. Knock enough off the record, so even if he comes back in a few years he'd still be able to get it by scoring 8-12 goals a season.
 
The best possible move for Kane IMO.

Gets to win 3-4 league titles, probably UCL, and if that happens he has a good shot at winning the Ballon d’Or. chances of doing either of that in England would have been very low.

A bit of a lazy move, perhaps, but he is starved for trophies, and Bayern will give him quite a few.
 
It would have been nice to get him alongside Hojlund, but we really shouldn't be signing anymore 30+ year old strikers. Even if it is kane.

Build a team the right way, with youth.

We're not beating city to the title even with him anyway.

He's not winning the Ball on D'Or let's be honest. He's really good, but he's not THAT good.

Lewandowski was a covid away from winning it. Benzema won it. Kane is almost as good as them.

If Bayern wins UCL (of course they will win Buli), and he is their best player (which he likely is), he can easily win it. In 3-4 seasons there, they have some good chance of winning 1 UCL.
 
some just don't understand how frustrating must be to be so good at your job yet forever remain on the losing side. at this point he doesn't want trophies, he needs them.
 
what's woodward up to these days? Apart from counting his millions that is.
 
Such a pity. My ideal forward for us despite the price tag and his age, he'd make us instant longshot CL and PL contenders and also much more entertaining to watch. Can't see him joining though after our outlay.

He'll be Bayern's best player by a distance. It's a given that they'll sweep up domestically, and if they win the CL then he'll be in with a good shout at the Balon by default.

Except he doesn't and Bayer are far bigger than Spurs.

Kane would have to be insane to turn this down and he won't

As soon as Mbappe joins Madrid, that Balloon D'Or is locked away for a while (unless someone else pops up).

Messi will probably win it this year (WC) and you've got the Euros in 2024 too which will play a big role for that year.

Thinking back to last year, replacing Upamecano with Kim may prove to be a bigger contributing factor to potential CL success than adding Kane.

The biggest winner if Kane goes to Bayern is Shearer. He'll be cracking open the champers knowing that he can continue to eat out on "top PL scorer" for the foreseeable.

Oh don't I cannot believe we didn't roll the red carpet out for him. Would have displaced Varane with ease that's for sure

If he were to win the CL league combo with bayern he'd win it the same way lewa would have had it not been for Covid.
 
I don't understand, weren't there many news saying Kane favors Bayern. Now apparently he has to decide whether to go or not.

Yes I definitely think so. They look very strong across all areas in the starting 11 if they sign Kane and having already signed Kim Min-jae to partner De Ligt.

Think Kane is the perfect striker for them as he'll easily get 30+ and can provide for the likes of Sane and Gnaby also.
