I hope he stays in the prem and breaks the PL record. Would seem daft to leave now. Bayern/German football is not what it was I’m not sure it would be a good move. Not sure how anyone can blame him, or claim him to be a bottler mind…. Bayern really just lack a top striker in prime age range- other clubs in German football it's hard to say- Borussia Dortmund really pushed it hard, RB Leipzig well changes in and out could improve, could regress.

People saying he is going to see out his contract & move to a prem team next season - but who? United have just spent £70 odd million on a young striker who will be their future, Man City have Haaland & he won't end up at Arsenal, so that leaves the unlikely destinations of Liverpool & Chelsea. Very strange. Can't help but feel it would be for the benefit of the England national team if he was at an elite club instead of Spurs. Who's the manager of Chelsea these days?

It’s sad how many of us English cannot see the lack of ambition in this from Kane but there you go, all about breaking the Prem goal scoring record isn’t it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Rich Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Shearer, when asked a while ago which he valued more prem title or goalscoring record, said he was a goalscorer and that was his job so the latter. I think Keane will think the same. I'm not sure I'd value a probable Bundesliga over that myself. He'll still be more than able to play at the top, top level in a year too. So stick with Spurs for another year then go somewhere to get trophies in the Prem next year. I don't Whilst I agree they don't need him, I doubt Man City wouldn't want him on a free if the wages were right. I think at the level he's at he could go to almost any club even in a years time. As a side note, I think he conducts himself very professionally, but I would imagine there would be a certain level of satisfaction for him in effectively reversing the 'gentlemen's agreement' controversy that potentially cost him a move to Man City. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was his plan, you would think he would of made that clear to them & they could of just got him to sign a pre-contract in January. All seems a bit strange at the minute. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a year he could go pretty much anywhere he wants. If you could choose a club in Europe to play for which one would you choose? I'm sure Bayern would be right up there, but I also doubt they would be most people's top choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Club and Country Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Be disappointed in Kane if he doesn't go he is in real danger of being the best player ever to never win anything, I can't think of anyone even remotely close to his level who hasn't won a trophy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUTOR Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Munich is a wonderful city. The club have a grand history and seem like fun to play for. Maybe he doesn’t give a shit about the Premier League goal record and simply wants to experience something different in his life (and career) before the chance has gone? Would be a refreshing move in my opinion. Edited August 10, 2023 by BUTOR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone pointed out on Twitter - go to Bayern for 2/3 seasons, win everything, then return to fire Spurs back into the Prem. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is, I suspect Bayern weren’t the club he hoped for (although they seemed to be the only one for the last two seasons showing real interest) , and will now see out the season and move to his preferred destination next summer.

He's currently 144 goals shy. 25 goals per season over the next six seasons (assuming he stays fit) would get him there. Maybe a long shot, but by no means impossible. I read today that Kane's wife is currently pregnant. He may have other reasons for not wanting to move overseas right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redstart Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Levy shafted Kane by not letting him go to Man City. He's also made it clear he refuses to deal with any of the Manchester clubs. If I was Kane I'd stay for the last year of his contract and then shaft Levy back by going on a free to Man United or City if they still want him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Its Smith Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 From twitter. Hard to disagree: Why a fuss over a PL goalscoring record? Football didn't start in '92. Kane's magnificent, but make it all time - as with honours. Jimmy Greaves, Dixie Dean, David Herd, Nat Lofthouse, Ian Rush, Alan Shearer and 11 others scored more top flight goals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect to Kane or his agent, but they don't seem like the sharpest tools in the box. Why wouldn't you have something inserted into that six year contract extension that he signed. Something like 'going into the last two years of the contract, he has ability to leave if the club receives a bid of 100 milly or they failed to qualify for the Champions League'.
