The 32-year-old, who scored 61 goals and provided seven assists in 51 appearances across all competitions during the 2025\u201326 season, is under contract in Munich only until the summer of 2027.<\/p>\n<p>No wonder Europe\u2019s top clubs are at least keeping an eye on developments. But even the original report in the Daily Mail noted that while Kane\u2019s camp listened to the Catalans\u2019 interest, they did not pursue it further.<\/p>\n<p>Now, several media outlets, including Sky and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/6845018\/2026\/06\/29\/harry-kane-bayern-barcelona-contract-news\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Athletic<\/a>, are reporting that Kane is clearly leaning toward extending his contract\u2014and that he plans to do so fairly soon after the 2026 World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>Kane is expected to extend his contract with Bayern<\/p>\n<p>Confidence is growing at FC Bayern that they will be able to keep the Englishman on the team long-term. A few points still need to be discussed, as has been reported frequently recently.<\/p>\n<p>Kane had the option to activate an exit clause in his contract this summer, but would have had to inform FC Bayern of this decision as early as January\u2014a right he did not exercise. In his interviews, Kane has also repeatedly emphasized how happy he is in Munich.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1431737\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Harry-Kane-4.jpg\" title=\"Harry Kane\" alt=\"Harry Kane\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\"\/>Photo: IMAGO<\/p>\n<p>The main points still up for discussion primarily include the contract term and details regarding the structure of his base salary. On \u201cTransfer Update,\u201d Sky reporter Florian Plettenberg stated that there is \u201cno truth\u201d to the Barcelona rumors and that Kane and his family are clearly prioritizing staying in Munich.<\/p>\n<p>So there\u2019s no cause for concern. After the World Cup\u2014which is the main focus right now\u2014Bayern Munich officials will need to step up talks immediately and present a solid initial offer. Then, nothing will stand in the way of a contract extension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Throughout the day, reports circulated that FC Barcelona had contacted Harry Kane\u2019s representatives regarding a potential transfer this&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":47635,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[92,3176,1686],"class_list":["post-47634","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-barcelona","tag-barcelona","tag-fc-bayern","tag-harry-kane"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47634","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47634"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47634\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/47635"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47634"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47634"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47634"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
