Tottenham finally cracked! Still as reluctant, as for several years, to let go of the top scorer in its history, the English club lowered its flag in the face of the striker’s desire to finally leave his lifelong team, and the huge offer from Bayern. Munich. Daniel Levy, the president of Spurs, accepted a few days ago yet another offensive from the Bavarian team of just over 110 million euros. This is the biggest amount ever collected by Tottenham, and ever spent by Bayern.
It is to say if this transfer is historic for the two directions. After weeks of negotiations, the 30-year-old flew to the German champions, even though he was detained at the airport by his club to settle final details, and signed his contract after having satisfied with the medical visit. “FC Bayern have signed Harry Kane (30) from Tottenham Hotspur. The English international striker has signed up with Rekordmeister until June 30, 2027. He will wear number 9 for the Munich club.can we read in the press release.
The biggest transfer in history for Tottenham and Bayern
With the English international in its ranks (84 caps, 58 goals), best gunner in the history of the Three Lions, Bayern Munich finally has a successor to Robert Lewandowski, who left to join FC Barcelona in the summer of 2022. Never replaced last season, the Rekordmeister suffered from the absence of a great number 9, in addition to having to manage the delicate situation of Sadio Mané, who failed to settle in Germany. This time, Bayern offers a top striker.
We will have to reckon with the Munich residents of Thomas Tuchel this season on the European scene. Held all these years at Tottenham despite offers from Manchester City or Manchester United, Kane will no doubt be keen to make up for lost time. Blocked by a glass ceiling, he had nothing more to prove in London. At 30 and despite staggering statistics, he still hasn’t won a collective title. This is at least one thing that this new challenge can offer him.
