Bayern Munich are preparing to open formal negotiations with striker Harry Kane over a new contract, with the England captain's current deal set to expire at the end of next season, according to reports from BBC Sport.

Kane, 32, is aware of the German champions' intention to secure his long-term future in Munich, with detailed discussions expected to progress in the coming weeks. The move comes despite continued interest from other top European clubs, with Kane reportedly settled in Germany and showing no inclination to leave.

A prolific record in Munich

Since joining Bayern from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2023 in a deal reportedly worth an initial 100 million euros, or roughly £86.4 million, Kane has established himself as one of the club's most productive strikers in recent memory. He has scored 146 goals in 147 appearances for Bayern, a rate of production that has made retaining him a clear priority for the club's leadership.

That success has translated into team trophies as well. Kane has helped Bayern win two Bundesliga titles and the DFB-Pokal since arriving in Munich, giving him the domestic silverware that eluded him for much of his career in England. This past season alone, he scored 61 goals across all competitions for Bayern before adding six more for England during the 2026 World Cup.
