Could Harry Kane be heading back to Tottenham Hotspur? According to reports from Football Insider, the England international striker might be available for a return to his former club in 2026. The report suggests that Kane has a release clause in his contract with Bayern Munich that activates next year, giving Tottenham the first opportunity to make a move.
Journalist Pete O’Rourke highlighted the potential interest from other Premier League clubs should Kane express a desire to return to England. He noted Kane's position as the second-highest goalscorer in Premier League history, suggesting the allure of breaking Alan Shearer's record could influence his decision.
O'Rourke also mentioned the decreasing release clause as Kane approaches the end of his Bayern Munich contract, potentially making him available for around £56 million as early as January. However, he raised concerns about Kane's age, as he will be 33 next season, which might deter some elite clubs.
Despite these factors, O’Rourke emphasized Tottenham's advantage, stating they have the first refusal on any deal for Kane. This agreement, confirmed by Daniel Levy, allows Tottenham to match any other club's bid, making a return to North London a real possibility. While acknowledging that any move is still some time away, O’Rourke anticipates further discussions from January onward, with Kane currently focused on his duties with Bayern Munich.
