‘You never know when a Saudi comes along and puts a lot of money on the table’ — Bayern Munich’s Uli Hoeneß ponders Harry Kane’s future
FC Bayern knows that Harry Kane eventually has to leave.
MUNICH, GERMANY - SEPTEMBER 01: Harry Kane of Bayern Muenchen with the price of the best Goalscorer of the last Season from the kicker magazin with Honorary President of Bayern Muenchen Uli Hoeness München before the Bundesliga match between FC Bayern München and Sport-Club Freiburg at Allianz Arena on September 01, 2024 in Munich, Germany.

Sometimes, an offer can be too big to turn down.
“He didn’t exercise his release clause, which means he’s definitely under contract here until summer 2027. What I’m hearing and feeling is that he and his family feel extremely comfortable here. You never know when a Saudi comes along and puts a lot of money on the table…but he feels very much at home.
Harry Kane can play at this level for at least another three or four years, because he’s a perfect professional who takes care of his body. He’s always at rehab and with the physios,” Hoeneß told Kicker (as captured by @iMiaSanMia ). The expectation is that Kane will sign an extension with Bayern Munich, but the game — and ambitions within the game — can change quickly.
Surely, Kane will assess everything after this season (and likely after the World Cup, too) to determine what the next chapter of his career looks like and when that will happen. One thing is certain, though, when the Englishman does decide to leave Bavaria, he will be gravely missed.
