He Bayern Munich has received a new setback in his search to reinforce his lead, since the English striker Harry Kane has ruled out the possibility of joining the Bavarian club, The Sun reports. Despite the interest shown by Bayern, Kane has made it clear that he has no intention of playing in the Bundesliga.
The 29-year-old has a contract with Tottenham until the summer of 2024 and has been a key part of the London side, scoring 30 goals in 38 Premier League games this season.
Bad news for Bayern: Kane does not want to play in the Bundesliga
As reported by BILD, Bayern Munich carried out an internal analysis to evaluate the market options to cover the center forward position. The result of that analysis indicated that no other striker was a better fit for FC Bayern than England and Tottenham captain Harry Kane. This rejection is a second blow for Bayern, as it comes on top of the rejection of Declan Rice, who appears to be on his way to joining Arsenal.
Manchester United and Real Madrid are two other clubs interested in signing Harry Kane. The English striker has aroused the interest of both teams due to his impressive performance in the Premier League and his goalscoring ability. Also, Real Madrid is looking at options to replace Karim Benzema, who is expected to leave the club in the near future.
Bayern Munich will have to look for alternatives to strengthen their lead after the refusals of Kane and Rice. The German club face a challenge in the transfer market as the search for a suitable center forward has become more difficult. However, with their reputation and resources, Bayern are likely to find alternative solutions to bolster their squad and remain competitive in both the Bundesliga and European competitions.
