Vincent Kompany downplays Kane speculation




Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany wants Harry Kane to focus on upcoming matches, downplaying transfer speculation.


“He's a leader in our team and to have one of the best performing players, that's something I am very fortunate for as a coach...”


Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany praises Harry Kane. Kompany believes Kane has made a conscious decision to open up his game, dropping back between the lines to evade defenders and develop further as a player. This evolution has made Kane an even more integral part of the team.


Kane's impressive form, with eight goals in four Bundesliga games, has sparked speculation about a potential return to the Premier League.


Harry Kane's exceptional form continued as he scored a hat-trick, including two penalties, in Bayern Munich's 4-1 win over Hoffenheim last week. This impressive performance not only showcased Kane's skill but also cemented his record as the first player in Bundesliga history to successfully convert 17 consecutive penalties. Kane's clinical finishing from the spot highlighted his growing influence on the match.


Bayern Munich's attacking prowess has been largely fueled by Kane's scoring ability, with the team netting a league-record 18 times in their first four matches. Under the guidance of coach Vincent Kompany, Bayern has maintained a perfect start to the season, topping the Bundesliga table. Kane's impressive start to the season has sparked discussions about his potential and legacy in the Bundesliga, with the striker already boasting nine hat-tricks since joining Bayern Munich in 2023.

Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany wants Harry Kane to stay focused on the upcoming match against Werder Bremen, followed by tough fixtures against Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund. “He is in an outstanding phase and the last (thing) I want to do is open a door to a different discussion,” Kompany said, addressing speculation about Kane's potential transfer.


Kompany believes Kane's hunger for trophies will keep him at Bayern Munich, saying, “He has the hunger to win titles and he can do it at Bayern and that is the focus,” Kompany said, emphasizing Kane's importance to the team.

The clause is valued at around €65 million ($76.35 million), but other sources suggest it could be £54m in the next transfer window. Tottenham Hotspur has a 'first option' clause, allowing them to match any offer made for Kane if Bayern accepts a bid or the release clause is met.


Transfer Speculation Details:

  • Release Clause: €65 million ($76.35 million) or £54m in the next transfer window
  • Tottenham's First Option: Spurs can match any offer made for Kane if Bayern accepts a bid or the release clause is met

Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank has expressed his admiration for Harry Kane, saying, “There are a lot of Tottenham fans, including myself, who would like to see Kane back.” Frank made this comment ahead of Tottenham's League Cup match against Doncaster Rovers, emphasizing that Kane would be welcome to return to the club. “He is an unbelievable player who did fantastic for Spurs and is doing fantastic for Bayern. Top player,” Frank added.


Frank doesn't think Kane will leave Bayern Munich anytime soon, though. “Personally, I don't think he will do it right now if I'm honest. He'll probably stay in Bayern and continue performing well. He was top scorer last year, won the championship, and he's doing fantastic now,” Frank said. Kane's contract with Bayern runs until 2027, and the club has stated that the decision regarding his future will be left up to the player himself.


Tottenham fans have mixed reactions to the possibility of Kane's return, with some expressing enthusiasm and others concern about the potential impact on the team's dynamics.
