Kane could finally be leaving Spurs...

Harry Kane’s time at Tottenham could finally be coming to an end as he looks set to join Bayern Munich in the coming days. Spurs and Bayern are set to hold talks on Monday in which the Bundesliga champions’ CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen and technical director Marco Neppe will meet with Daniel Levy to discuss a deal, which if they can come to an agreement, will see Kane move to Germany. Kane, 30, is in the final year of his contract but has shown no desire to sign a new deal and with Thomas Tuchel identifying the forward as his number one target, it will represent one of the moves of the summer.

Harry Kane finally set to depart Spurs?:

Many would’ve expected the England international to stay in England given that he is in touching distance of Alan Shearer’s Premier League goal record of 260 goals – with 213 goals to his name currently however the forward has stressed his desire to go and win trophies and sees Bayern as his best chance to do so. There’s still some work to do in terms of negotiating a deal. Spurs value Kane at £100m but given that the forward has 12 months left on his contract, Bayern see that as too much and are willing to make a bid of around £85m, a move they already see as expensive. Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou has remained coy on any discussions around his future but if Kane was to leave in the coming days, it would leave Spurs with less than a fortnight to find a replacement before the Premier League season starts.
