Harry Kane, a 33-year-old striker for Bayern, is moving towards a contract renewal that still needs to define its duration. Lothar Matthäus believes the Englishman will end up insisting on a new three-year deal, although a 2+1 model is also being considered. The Barcelona transfer market attempted to sign him, but without success.
Harry Kane, between two and three years of contract
Kane's current agreement with Bayern ends on June 30, 2027. The club is already negotiating an extension, and Herbert Hainer recently confirmed that the club's intention is to extend the relationship with the forward.
The main pending issue is the duration. Matthäus explained on Sky90 that Kane would prefer to sign for three seasons and considered it possible that both parties would end up agreeing on that formula.
The former Bayern player also proposed an alternative: two more years with an additional one, subject to playing 20 official matches during the second season. This is a possibility suggested by Matthäus, not a condition confirmed by the club.
Bayern's stance aligns with the striker's evolution since his arrival in August 2023. Kane cost 100 million euros from Tottenham and initially signed until 2027.
Brilliant team performance and the perfect result before internationals 🙌

Personally very proud to get to 100 Bundesliga goals in record time - never possible without all the support from teammates and staff and the fans. ❤️🙌 pic.twitter.com/AdQdQC62d8
Matthäus lays out Kane's numbers on the table
Recent performance reinforces the context of the negotiations. Kane reached 100 Bundesliga goals on September 18 and needed only 98 matches to reach that figure.
His total record with Bayern is 152 goals in 154 official matches, according to data published by Sport Bild after the victory against Union Berlin. He scored twice in that same match, surpassing the hundred-goal mark in the German competition.
Matthäus also explained why he believes Kane has the grounds to decide on the duration of the next contract. The Englishman, alongside Vincent Kompany, has more freedom to move than during his time at Tottenham, while his family has adapted to living in Munich.
Besides, Bayern has not hidden its intention to keep the forward. Hainer stated over the weekend that the club wants to continue counting on Kane and hopes to reach an agreement to extend his contract.
Now Harry Kane faces the crucial phase of a renewal where the main pending point is the duration. Discussions will continue over the coming weeks, with the scenario gaining strength, according to Lothar Matthäus, that the forward will remain at Bayern until 2030, although the 2+1 model remains on the table as an alternative.
