England captain Harry Kane has reached an initial agreement with Bayern Munich to extend his contract until the summer of 2029, putting the German club in a strong position to continue benefiting from the services of one of Europe's top strikers.
According to a report published by Sky Sports on October 16, Bayern Munich is finalising the remaining paperwork before the agreement becomes official. However, at the time of the report, Kane had not yet publicly signed a new contract.
Since joining Bayern Munich from English club Tottenham Hotspur in 2023, Kane has become a key figure in the German champions' attack.
The striker has scored 154 goals in 156 appearances for Bayern Munich. These statistics highlight his significant contribution to the team's success since arriving at the Allianz Arena.
Bayern believes that retaining Kane will help the team compete for Bundesliga and UEFA Champions League titles in the coming seasons.
New Contract Until 2029
Kane and Bayern have reached a verbal agreement to extend his contract until 2029. Further reports suggest that the club has proposed continuing to pay the striker an estimated £400,000 per week.
Kane is said to have initially preferred a contract running until 2030, allowing him to continue playing at the highest level in the lead-up to that year's World Cup. However, Bayern has focused negotiations on an agreement extending until 2029.
Kane has established himself as a major figure in German football thanks to his goalscoring ability, chance creation and leadership in attack.
During his time at Tottenham Hotspur, he was among the most prolific strikers in the English Premier League, scoring 280 goals in all competitions for the club.
His move to Bayern Munich gave him the opportunity to compete for major trophies, while continuing to demonstrate his quality in the Bundesliga and European competitions.
His individual achievements and contribution to the team have strengthened Bayern's determination to ensure his services remain available for several more years.
