Tottenham fans were recently given a major update on the potential return of Harry Kane to the club. The England captain left his childhood team to join Bayern Munich last summer, with only a year left on his contract and no indication of an extension.
The decision by Spurs chairman Daniel Levy to sell their star player just before the start of the 2023/24 season came as a shock, but it likely came with a number of benefits. One of those benefits was hinted at earlier this week when it was announced that Tottenham would host Bayern in a pre-season friendly at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in August.
The England captain just celebrated a fantastic win against Arsenal in the Champions League last night, which will have brought great joy to Tottenham fans
Son would also have been delighted with his former strike partner, who shares the record as the most productive duo in Premier League history
Kane has now made the case for Tottenham star Son, putting the South Korean above some of the greatest strikers the world has ever seen
Harry Kane makes big claims about Tottenham’s Son Heung-min Tottenham signed Son Heung-min from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015
This Korean actually had problems in his debut season
He didn’t like soccer at all, so much so that he asked Mauricio Pochettino to let him quit the club
However, the Argentine convinced Son to stay and he hasn’t looked back since
Son is one of the greatest players to have played for Tottenham
He made over 400 appearances for the club and was directly involved in 243 of his goals
This is a very good result for a player who has primarily played wide
No one knows that Son is better than Harry Kane
Most of Son’s 402 appearances for Spurs were played alongside the England captain, and the two players caused all sorts of problems for opponents when they played together
Well, Kane made a claim about Son that may surprise you
England captain was asked by his TV2Sport in Norway to choose the ultimate striker based on various categories
When asked to name the player with the best run from the back, Kane could have chosen anyone from any era, but he chose his old friend Son
That’s a big compliment to Koreans
What Son Heung-min recently said about Harry Kane leaving Tottenham Harry Kane leaving Tottenham was a sad moment for all Spurs fans
The Englishman was their best player for about a decade
He was an incredible asset to them and gave them countless memories that will last a lifetime
Son Heung-min recently admitted that he was very sad when Kane decided to leave the club, but claimed he was really happy to see his old friend succeed at Bayern
“I think we had something different
We were together for almost 10 years
“It was a great honour to play together because he is one of the best players in the world
I was really sad to see him leave but it was a good move for him and now he is doing well and scoring goals for Bayern
There had been talk of a buy-back clause after Kane’s departure, but transfer expert Fabrizio Romano shed some light on the situation. According to Romano, there is no traditional buy-back clause in place, but rather a gentleman’s agreement between the two clubs. If Bayern decide to sell Kane in the future, Tottenham will be informed of the decision.
Despite the possibility of Kane returning to Spurs one day, it seems unlikely, especially as Bayern’s chances of winning more trophies diminish. Bayern’s recent defeat to Borussia Dortmund extended Bayer Leverkusen’s lead at the top of the table to 13 points, making winning the Champions League the only hope for Kane this season. Bayern will face Arsenal in the upcoming rounds, with the potential for Kane to be knocked out of Europe by his former club’s bitter rivals.
Tottenham fans have been sent a huge update regarding the possibility of Harry Kane sealing a sensational return. The England captain departed his boyhood club to sign for Bayern Munich this past summer with just 12 months left on his contract and no clear indication he would sign an extension.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy selling his star player just a few days before the 2023/24 season was a surprise, however such a decision likely meant they were a number of incentives. One of those was potentially confirmed earlier this week as it was announced the Lilywhites will welcome Bayern to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for a pre-season friendly in August.
“More than a traditional buy-back clause, from what I’m hearing it’s more of a gentleman’s agreement between the clubs where if they decide to sell Harry Kane in the future, Tottenham will be made aware of the decision.
“This is the discussion that took place between Bayern and Tottenham, but it’s not a traditional buy-back clause where you can go there and put down the money and the player is coming back the following day, I don’t think it’s an automatic clause, but more of a gentleman’s agreement.”
Despite that, Kane returning to Spurs one day, while possible, is seemingly unlikely especially with his Bayern trophy hopes decreasing. Over the weekend, Bayern were beaten by Borussia Dortmund which meant Bayer Leverkusen extended their lead at the top to 13 points.
