A member of Tottenham&#8217;s youth academy since 2004, the star striker has been contracted to the North London club from the start.<\/p>\n<p>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/06\/27\/tottenham-hotspur-terms-james-maddison\/\" target=\"_self\">&#8216;Agreed Personal Terms&#8217;: Tottenham Hotspur Take Huge Step in Signing \u00a360 Million Midfielder Who is Eager to Move\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since making his competitive debut for the Liliwhites in 2012, The Englishman, often referred to as a &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/sport\/football\/world-cup\/harry-kane-england-strikers-gareth-southgate-2026-b2245037.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">generational<\/a>&#8216; striker, has become the club&#8217;s top goalscorer, England&#8217;s all-time top goalscorer, and the second-highest goalscorer in Premier League history.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, a barren trophy cabinet still looms over his immense individual accomplishments. The striker has never won any competitive competitions, yet has finished as a runner-up multiple times in club and international tournaments.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham&#8217;s recent 8th-place finish,\u00a0 as well as having a squad that is not up to par with top teams, seemingly complicates things. If he stays put, trophies may not be in his sights anytime soon.<\/p>\n<h3>A Perfect Fit<\/h3>\n<p>When in search of trophies, there are few places better to go than Bayern Munich. The German club has won the Bundesliga for the past 11 years and have a squad strong enough to compete in the Champions League.<\/p>\n<p>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/06\/26\/tottenham-hotspur-micky-van-de-ven\/\" target=\"_self\">Tottenham Hotspur Add \u00a326 Million Defender to Shortlist; He&#8217;s Keen to Move<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For Bayern, the transfer is just as fitting. Ever since Robert Lewandowski&#8217;s departure, the club have been in need of a world-class striker to spearhead their attack. Kane&#8217;s 30 Premier League goals in the 2022\/23 season speak for themselves, and his play style of dropping deep would be advantageous for the world-class attackers around him.<\/p>\n<p>With a better supporting cast, the England international would have a real chance at finally lifting a trophy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Featured Image<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a title=\"PSG - FCB\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ab-planepictures\/23885366878\/in\/photolist-CoEKqj-YTEqfW-CQcE5-29uP8ZE-rYZVHd-qCUvkL-28carpP-Z3ra1s-29yWqpe-rruDcM-28caraF-Z3raSN-28tEedu-dfphMd-dP8r8j-rtfDzQ-JJLUWQ-dz7bpo-2amiXKi-NdRcJb-29zYJYZ-28tEi5s-Ck5utS-28casmi-rGwZU5-qP2G4e-XbsBYo-qCUwnf-dpJAJF-dP2Q2a-KFjrFv-8S9Re4-NdRPGJ-2amiZD8-KFjpfP-NdSxCs-RLRQzM-NdStvQ-28Yg6Bv-6Lsc2B-NdSF3C-28tEfNd-7XPTFK-74ZhXf-mXWeub-63DFQi-8oqdYb-21zehJP-7jLVkD-5nTyRw\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/4467\/23885366878_47800286a1_b.jpg\" alt=\"PSG - FCB\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">[url=https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/CoEKqj][img]https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/4467\/23885366878_47800286a1_b.jpg[\/img][\/url][url=https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/CoEKqj]PSG &#8211; FCB[\/url] by [url=https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ab-planepictures\/]Andre Bonn[\/url], on Flickr<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although Tottenham may not be ready to say goodbye, the Harry Kane transfer saga could soon come to a close.
