And it's generally senseless because winning trophies with Chelsea, City, United or Liverpool isn't exactly difficult, even in our worst times we managed to get trophies when we managed to be competent for a short period of time. All his options are top clubs and they all win trophies relatively regularly without him or someone of his caliber upfront. The entire thing is senseless.
Harry Kane | Bayern Munich player

But why would they do that? You seem to assume that Bayern's goal here is to ensure Harry Kane ends up at a Premier League club. I think it's a lot more likely that their aims are rather more traditional: they want him to score goals and improve their team so they can have a go at the Champions League trophy.
I kind of feel for Bayern. Once they finally overcome Levy they will faced with the final boss, a top football agent who's even an tougher opponent to negotiate with.

No one will be paying that much money for him considering he will be older.
Because Bayern are an incredibly well run club, Kane has just turned 30 and they will know that he hasn't got many years left at the top, so I think they will cash in on him in either a year or two years max.
If Bayern made him available next summer, Premier League clubs would definitely be in for him at a similar price.
We’re not going to match €120m are we? Dream dead. 
The strange varnish under his coffee makes it look like a river of spilled coffee is flowing from that cup.I kind of feel for Bayern. Once they finally overcome Levy they will faced with the final boss, a top football agent who's even an tougher opponent to negotiate with.
So Spurs probably have stolen him another trophy as he will sign too late to be able to register him for tomorrow's Supercup. (He would not have to play, just to be in the squad)

Looks like Bayern fans are quite happy with this despite the large fee. I don't blame them because they're taking the best striker the Premier League has had over the last few years (in terms of consistency).
Just a shame that we never got to see Mane, Sane and Kane line up for them.

Wait, a player who was very (very) unlikely to join us, irrespective if we matched Bayern's bid, isn't joining us ?
Damn you , United ! Damn you to hell !!

I doubt he will retain that sort of value. I think Bayern chose him because he's the most dependable top striker available and just a tad cheaper than Mbappé or Osimhen, more proven too.
For all his faults, Kane doesn't seem like a problem player or a primadonna. He does his shifts and is extremely productive. Bayern likes their Lewa and Toni strikers.
Feck me, Levy is such a twat.
If you want to die on this hill go for it.
Lewandowski was banging in goals till the age of 34 with them and they only sold him because he wanted to leave. Bayern will be looking at having a top striker for a few more years more than at his resale value
You really want to create some sort of issue out of nothing?
It'll be intriguing to see what absolute dross Spurs splash this money on. Just before the start of the season too.
Spurs fans must be fuming.

Ange could do far worse than go back North and get Kyogo. He's tailor made for his system.
If I have my stats correct, Musiala spent years being moulded at Chelsea's highly regarded and successful academy, and then joined Bayern and played the sum total of a mesmerising 12 u-17 games before getting his Bundesliga debut.
Bayern academy prospect just as much as Chelsea one, though.
It's an absolute travesty. They should have held on to Mane simply for this.
For the FlightRadar nerds.
Out the FPL team he goes.
Jesus my eyes are getting so bad I thought it was Ten Hag and the joke was we were going to try and hijack the deal. Need to go to Specsavers.
It's not a qualitative or quantitative point. Musiala is an academy player of both clubs, he signed apprenticeship contracts for both clubs and signed his first professional contract in 2021. Are Chelsea the main developers in his case? Absolutely but the scholarship/apprenticeship contract that he signed at 16 for Bayern is also an academy contract as is the year that he spent in their academy before his promotion. From the POV of FIFA and UEFA, he is also considered to be formed at both clubs.If I have my stats correct, Musiala spent years being moulded at Chelsea's highly regarded and successful academy, and then joined Bayern and played the sum total of a mesmerising 12 u-17 games before getting his Bundesliga debut.

So it's fair to say at least Alan Shearer cares about the Alan Shearer record of PL goals
He’s still in his house of 12.11pm, he’s not even at the airport yet. He has been told it will be BM who will tell him he can travel, not us. Very odd.
Yeah we went out in the quarter finals against City after 8 wins out of 8 games against Barca, Inter, PSG. How and why should these teams have better chances to win the CL? Let alone Arsenal or United...
City obviously are the big favorites. I'd also argue Real will always be among the top favorites. But besides these two teams there is no other team that has a better chance to win the CL than Bayern imo.
TSV Lehnerz is where he learned it all, everyone knows that.If I have my stats correct, Musiala spent years being moulded at Chelsea's highly regarded and successful academy, and then joined Bayern and played the sum total of a mesmerising 12 u-17 games before getting his Bundesliga debut.

I thought he was at airport?
SkySports just reported it.
Kane getting trolled; wow...
Frankly amazed that we haven't got involved. Fergie would have been all over this like a cheap suit.
I was thinking about this as well. As we’ve seen this summer, that sum of money doesn’t get you a whole lot, unless Spurs have scouted some gems ready to take the step up out there.
Why would clubs suddenly be interested at that price next season when they aren't interested this season?
My mate who is a Spurs fan thinks they will buy Orban, Gallagher and a CB when Kane leaves.
Its not that clubs aren't interested, it's more that Levy wouldn't sell at that price to them.
