For some reason I feel like this is the most likely scenario. From the start it has felt like lose-lose-lose was always how it was going to end. Spurs gambles on another year of Kane but misses out on CL anyway, Kane wastes a year of his prime, Bayern doesn't get a good striker, Kane leaves for free next summer and Spurs get £0 for him.
I really hope I'm wrong though. I'd love to see him at Bayern.
to be fair to Kane, Bayern is currently going through some Drama, yes they won their League, but that's because the league is not very competitive and I am not sure many English players rank winning the bundesliga that highly, no offense to Bundesliga fans.
So Bayern are kind of in a situation as United last season. Kind of a shit season with lots of drama, changes in leadership and the club has bit of a warning sign hanging on it, their handling of Nagelsmann was not well done and who knows how long Tuchel will last, based on his last two stints and Bayern's m.o. it won't be long.
Add to that the fact that Kane is a free-agent next season he could have his pick of a team.
IF the rumors are true he was already asking Man United upwards of 400K a week. NExt season he can get a nice little sign-on bonus added on top of it.
not sure many English players rank winning the bundesliga that highly
Kane hasn't won anything though, right? Regardless, I think most players would be very happy to win the Bundesliga. You get to experience a great celebration in Munich, through a bunch of beer on people, and of course in order to be able to win and celebrate you'll play in an amazing league with a very unique and beautiful fan culture. Not to mention that Bayern will almost certainly go quite far in the Champions League.
Whether he will go to Bayern is another question of course. Maybe he just prefers staying in England.
Please let this happen. As a Bayern fan I just want an actual striker.
Yeah I'm sure that ONE YEAR of winning the league for the 70th time was really hard
We'd have had a shot at the CL if we'd had even an average striker.
as a United fan, I hope it falls through, since signing him on a free next summer is our best bet.
Go away you've ruined enough for us already.
He is good, but a bit old, isn't he?
I said it once, I will say it twice. I will believe it once it is officially announced.
That deadline nonsense doesn't make any sense and I would expect the Feddiverse to question Journos more.
Bayern is making their record-breaking offer and told Spurs that they have less than 24h to accept it? Why? Next Saturday is the Super Cup (a better friendly in Germany) but even then Kane wouldn't join a training session before Monday. So why?
I read what PL fans say about Levy, he is a proper businessman, no?
Bayern has Dreesen, a proper banker (a member of the board of directors of HVB and BayernLB and Chairman of the German branch of UBS) and Hoeneß who made an indebted club one of the big 4 (revenue generating to prevent silly discussions).
Does anybody really think they are amateurs like portrayed in the media or that the media is like usually lying to create outrage which results in interactions and clicks?
deadline does make sense, there is now less than a month left from the transfer window and even less till the start of the leagues, at a certain point you need to move on from a target if it's not gonna happen, or you end up in a Man United - Frenkie De Jong situation.
