Bayern Munich does not regret having spent €100 million in 2023 to lure Harry Kane into its net, when the English striker from Tottenham was already 30 years old. Since playing in Bavaria, the former Spurs player has been a veritable scoring machine (152 goals scored in 154 matches in all competitions. He won the European Golden Shoe twice (2023/2024, 2025/2026, 36 goals), finished top scorer in the Bundesliga over the last three years (36 goals in 2023/2024, 26 goals in 2024/2025, 36 goals in 2025/2026) and above all he finally won the first trophies of his career (2 Bundesliga, 2 German Super Cups, 1 German Cup).
XXL performances that he hopes to reward by lifting the first Champions League of his career. In the meantime, his performances convinced the leaders of Bayern Munich to offer him an extension. Free from any contract in 2027, Kane told the London Evening Standard that he was well on his way to prolonging the adventure in Germany. “Discussions continue. The talks are fruitful, to be honest. We are pretty close to an agreement. There are still a few points to be resolved. I feel good there. I think an announcement will soon be made. » This interview also provides the opportunity for the England international (121 caps, 85 goals) to discuss his future. And as he suggested some time ago, Harry Kane still imagines himself in the NFL, the North American football championship.
End up in the United States in MLS… or in the NFL
“It’s an option that I’m going to try to consider a little more seriously. Everything will depend on how my career develops over the next five or six years, my motivation and what I want to do. The NFL is a much more realistic project than golf, let’s put it that way. I look at it like this: I take penalties, and the pressure and technique are very similar. If I got into it, in terms of training, it would be the sport that would come closest. But I know that, and this is the case with all high-level sports, when you watch it on television, people give the impression that it is easy and you say to yourself that it is possible, but that is not always the case. If I had to try it, it’s something I would take seriously. I would take between six months and a year to train before launching”he confided, specifying that no NFL team had contacted him at the moment.
And if he doesn’t return to American football, Kane could still land in the United States… to play in Major League Soccer. “Maybe if I find myself in MLS in the future or in a similar championship, it would be a situation where we could reconcile the two (with the NFL), perhaps, depending on the seasons. But again, it’s just an idea in my head, because for now, I want to play here as long as possible. Sometimes when you get to my age, 33, it’s easy to start thinking about retirement or the future, but I’m trying to make the most of the last two, five, ten years, and I’m going to keep going. » To be continued.
