FRANKFURT/LONDON: Bayern Munich have been reported in Germany as ready to move for Tottenham and England striker Harry Kane.

Speculation suggests that Bayern are willing to part with £86m for their ‘top target’ – a sum that could well interest Spurs given their talisman is entering the final year of his deal and seemingly has no inclination to agree an extension.

Spurs are highly unlikely to sanction a switch to Premier League rivals such as Manchester United so – if he moves this summder – going abroad looks most likely.

Kane scored 32 goals in another prolific season but once again ended up without a trophy, a barren streak that would surely end if he joined a Bayern side that hoover up honours in Germany.

However, last season they only pipped Borussia Dortmund to the league title on the very final day and Bayern boss Thomas Tuchel, embarking on his first full season as head coach at the Allianz Arena, wants Kane to replace flop Sadio Mane.

Real Madrid’ original interest appears to be fading as they make Kylian Mbappe their priority.
