Harry Kane is expected to extend his contract with FC Bayern as soon as possible. After taking a short break following the World Cup, he will first return to training, and then talks are set to begin.
As early as this past weekend, the British newspaper The Times reported that the striker is expected to sign a new contract soon —one that will run through the summer of 2029 and pay him a salary similar to his current one, or around 25 million euros gross.
There are many indications that it won’t be long before an agreement is announced.
Kane’s Timeline: Bayern Wants to Extend His Contract Quickly
The Munich-based Abendzeitung also reports on upcoming talks that could yield a result very soon. If everything goes according to plan, the long-awaited press release could come as early as late August or early September, the report states.
Bayern is confident, especially because not only Kane himself but also his entire family feels very much at home in Munich. Kane has a very peaceful, orderly environment and can focus on his personal life and soccer without the intense media attention that surrounds him in England.
Praise has recently come from Herbert Hainer, Uli Hoeneß, and others. Everyone in charge in Munich sees the Englishman as a role model and, at the same time, as one of the most important players on the roster. That’s why a contract extension won’t ultimately fall through over a one-year deal or a million in annual salary.
So things are looking very good. In addition to Kane, Michael Olise is also expected to sign a new contract soon, though negotiations with the Frenchman haven’t progressed as far as those with the Englishman. Olise was heavily courted this summer; Real Madrid, in particular, was repeatedly linked with him.
