Harry Kane has been officially introduced as a Bayern Munich player, following his transfer from Tottenham Hotspur for a record-breaking fee of €100m. The English national team captain, who signed a four-year contract, becomes the most expensive player in Bundesliga history and one of only 16 players to cost €100m or more. Kane‘s objective at Bayern is clear: to score goals and win titles. Although his first opportunity for a title was missed in the recent defeat to RB Leipzig in the DFL Supercup, Kane expressed his excitement about his debut for his new club. He described his move to Munich as an “incredible experience” and spoke highly of the reception he received at the game.
Kane acknowledged that his decision to leave Tottenham was a difficult one, as the club will always hold a special place in his heart. However, he stated that he wanted to win titles and play in the Champions League, which led him to consider Bayern’s offer. Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy made the transfer challenging until the final moment, but an agreement was eventually reached. Kane thanked Levy for his cooperation and jokingly promised him a dinner in London.
Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen emphasized that €100m is still a significant amount of money for the club. Kane also acknowledged the responsibility of paying back that sum and expressed his determination to achieve big things with Bayern. Both Dreesen and Kane denied any doubts about the player’s commitment, stating that the drama surrounding the transfer helped to circulate the story in the media.
Dreesen further clarified that while Bayern is willing to make big transfers if they can handle the financial aspect, €100m is not the new norm for the club. The CEO stressed that future high-value transfers would still be considered remarkable and not become a regular occurrence.
Overall, Kane‘s move to Bayern Munich has been completed, and he is now focused on his new role and the opportunity to contribute to the team’s success. With his talent and experience, Kane has the potential to make a significant impact at Bayern and help them achieve their goals. As he settles into his new environment, all eyes will be on the English striker to see how he adapts to the Bundesliga and continues to perform at the highest level.
