Report reveals Bayern Munich’s financial limitations with Harry Kane bid
The Daily Mail have claimed that Bayern Munich are likely to be not prepared to meet Tottenham Hotspur’s valuation of Harry Kane in order to tempt them into a sale.
We relayed an update from Fabrizio Romano (CaughtOffside) this morning where the journalist claimed that Bayern’s latest offer of €80m (£68.5m) plus add-ons for Kane is expected to be turned down by Tottenham.
He explained that despite the Bundesliga giants being convinced of the striker’s desire to move to the Allianz Arena, Spurs remain hopeful that he will stay at the club beyond the summer transfer window.
Romano suggested earlier that it would take a much higher offer to convince Daniel Levy and the Tottenham hierarchy to let go of the England captain.
He said: “An important update from Tottenham – they’ve been approached again by Bayern Munich for Harry Kane. Some sources say it was a verbal bid, some say it was an official bid, so it’s difficult to clarify the situation precisely, especially when Tottenham’s stance is clear, that they don’t want to sell the player.
“But Bayern have made a new bid after their first offer was rejected, as I said previously – they have no desire to give up. They submitted a new bid of €80m plus add-ons. The message from Tottenham remains very clear – it is very unlikely that they will accept this, that is the feeling of those close to the board and to Daniel Levy.
“As things stand, there’s no indication about an asking price or valuation from Spurs, it’s very clear that Levy still hopes to keep Kane but all sources believe €80m won’t be enough to sign the England striker. Bayern have to do better than this to make it happen.
“From Bayern’s end, they remain convinced that Kane is prepared to make this move, but again it really depends on Daniel Levy and at the moment there is no green light. Kane will also speak to new manager Ange Postecoglou in the next days. Tottenham have received no communication yet from Kane over his future or his plans, so these talks will be crucial.”
Will Bayern Munich meet Tottenham’s Harry Kane valuation?
This has now been backed up by The Mail, who state that it would take a ‘huge bid’ for the Bundesliga giants to prise Kane away from the North London club.
The publication explains that such a bid is likely to be beyond the reach of Bayern this summer since an offer €80m (£68.5m) represents the ‘upper end’ of what the club are willing to table to Tottenham
It is suggested that Thomas Tuchel’s men are not willing to pay much more for a player who has just one year left on his contract in N17.
Kane is due to report back to Tottenham for pre-season training this week ahead of the club flying to Australia on Friday.
Spurs Web Opinion
Bayern have to up their offer by around £20m to near £100m to even give Tottenham something to think about. There is no way that Daniel Levy would be persuaded to sell Kane for £70m since Champions League qualification next season would earn Spurs a significant portion of that sum.
