‘Bundesliga legend’ Uli Hoeneß, former Bayern Munich president and current honorary chairman, has sent a message to Tottenham Hotspur.
“Kane has told me that he would like to join Bayern Munich this summer,” Hoeneß said.
Bayern Munich have made two formal offers to Tottenham for ‘Captain’ Kane, both of which have been rejected. The most recent offer was reportedly a £68.5 million transfer fee with options. Reports have emerged that Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is determined to hold on to Kane until his contract expires next year, and that he is even hoping that Kane will re-sign for Spurs.
However, Jupp Heynckes told German outlet Sport1 that Kane has already signaled his desire to join Bayern Munich, and that his desire could force Tottenham’s hand.
“Kane has clearly signaled in all his conversations that his decision has been made and if that continues, we will be able to bring him, because then Tottenham will have to buckle up,” Hoeneß said at Bayern Munich’s training camp. “Kane wants to play in the Champions League and we’re lucky enough to have that, but Tottenham can’t play 카지노 next season. He has the opportunity to come to a top club in Europe,” he said, expressing his pride in the ‘German champions’ and ‘best club in Europe’ Bayern Munich.
“It’s something that we all like, and his advisors like very much. So far, his father and brother have kept their word, and if they keep it that way, I think we’ll be fine,” he said, reiterating his positive stance on the Kane signing.
Hours before Hoeneß’ comments, however, Thomas Tuchel was more cautious and conservative in his response to the club’s intense interest in Kane. “It’s a tired answer, but I don’t comment on players who are not with us,” he said. “It’s no secret that we are looking for a number nine. If we find a player who fits that bill, then of course we will go all in,” he explained. “If we don’t find anyone, we are happy with the squad we have. But we need more time and patience.”
