FC Bayern wants to secure Harry Kane on a long-term deal—but the club will have to be patient when it comes to concrete negotiations. Initial contact has apparently already taken place, but the decisive step will have to wait until after the World Cup.
As Sky reports, FC Bayern and Kane have jointly decided to put negotiations on hold until after the World Cup. Initial talks had recently taken place, but now Kane’s focus is said to be solely on the World Cup with England. Concrete negotiations on a contract extension are therefore expected to begin only after the tournament—a logical sequence of events given his current workload.
According to the report, the idea of a contract running through 2029 is on the table. The chances of reaching an agreement are currently considered very good. Particularly important for the German record champions: Kane is reportedly not in talks with any other club and remains very open to extending his contract at Säbener Straße.
Bayern Remains Unfazed Despite the Wait
Bayern would like to clarify the future of its star striker early on, but talks have recently stalled due to the World Cup. Kane is under contract until the summer of 2027—so the contract gives the club some breathing room without diminishing the importance of reaching an early resolution.
Internally, the club remains relaxed. Kane is said to have signaled his general willingness to extend his contract, and the Englishman feels very at home in Munich with his family. Both factors fuel the club’s confidence that an agreement could be reached after the tournament without major hurdles.
On the field, Kane is already making a strong case for himself at the World Cup. He scored twice in the 4-2 win over Croatia , underscoring his form. However, prolonged delays in resolving his contract situation could attract international competition—a risk that is likely well known in Munich.
Details regarding salary, contract length, or a possible buyout clause are not yet known, nor is there a confirmed timeline for talks following the World Cup. At the same time, Bayern is working on an early contract extension with Michael Olise, whose contract situation is similar. The focus, however, is on Kane—and the plan to resolve the matter quickly after the tournament.
