Breaking: Bayern Munich announce Kane capture


FC Bayern have signed Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur.

 The 30-year-old England striker has agreed terms with the German record champions until 30 June 2027 and will wear the number 9 shirt for the Munich club.

The 30-year-old has signed a four-year contract at the Allianz Arena, ending a 19-year stint with Spurs in which he became the club’s all-time top scorer.

Kane announced his exit from Spurs in a social media post shortly before the official announcement.

“I wanted to be the first to tell you Tottenham fans that I will be leaving the club today,” he said.

Obviously a lot of emotions going through me through now. Sad to be leaving the club I have spent nearly 20 years of my life at from an 11-year-old boy to a 30-year-old man, there have been so many great moments and special memories, memories that I will cherish forever.

“I felt like this was the time to leave. I didn’t want to go into the season with a lot of unresolved future talk.

“I think it’s important for the new manager and players to concentrate on trying to get Tottenham back to around the top of the table and fighting for trophies. I wish [Tottenham manager] Ange [Postecoglou] and all the boys the very best of luck. Honestly I will be watching from a fan point of view now and really hoping the team can be successful.

“It’s not a goodbye because you never know how things pan out in the future but it’s a thank you and see you soon.”
