Bayern Munich have set Tottenham a deadline of midnight on Friday to accept a club-record offer in excess of €100 million for striker Harry Kane, sources have told ESPN.

Highlights:

  • Bayern Munich have set Tottenham a deadline of midnight on Friday to accept a club-record offer in excess of €100 million ($110m) for striker Harry Kane, sources have told ESPN. Sources have told ESPN that Bayern’s latest bid comprises €100m guaranteed with up to approximately €20m in add-ons.
  • Sources have told ESPN that Kane has no interest in signing a new deal with Spurs this summer, leaving the club to make a decision as to whether they cash in now or risk losing their prized asset for nothing at the end of the season.
  • Face-to-face talks have taken place this week between Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy and Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen, and there is optimism that Kane is open to joining the Bundesliga champions if the two clubs can agree a fee.

    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.
