Harry Kane: Bayern Munich submitting new Tottenham offer as record to be smashed – sources
Bayern Munich are returning with a new and improved bid for Harry Kane and are increasingly confident of securing an agreement with Tottenham, sources have told Football Insider.
Spurs have offered their star player a new contract including a “huge” pay rise to avoid the devastating financial blow of losing him for nothing next year.
But Kane does not plan to sign a new Spurs deal regardless of what happens in this transfer window and wants to join the Bundesliga champions.
His stance is encouraging to Bayern, who will submit a third bid for the England skipper when Tottenham return from their pre-season tour of Australia, Thailand and Singapore at the end of the month.
The north Londoners have already rejected two offers from the German giants but have not been put off by Spurs’ snubs.
Tottenham are holding out for £100m for Kane and while Bayern’s fresh bid may not meet that figure, the German club’s transfer committee are confident there will soon be a breakthrough and a deal will be finalised early next month.

They are in regular dialogue with Kane’s camp over a deal and believe they have a firm verbal agreement with the player.
The transfer is likely to now exceed the club-record Tottenham sale of Gareth Bale to Real Madrid for £85million in 2013.
Tottenham have offered Kane, who turns 30 next week, a deal that would, according to sources, not only significantly improve his current £200,000-a-week wages but make him one of the Premier League’s top earners.
The current top bracket players include the likes of Man City’s Erling Haaland and Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, who signed a new three-year contract last summer.
