Recruitment of players = Business, Kane's wish and Munich's plan are different. Why Son Heung-min Kane Reunion Does Not Win Persuasion

An issue that has been continuously emerging in the foreign media recently is the 'Kane-Son Heung-min reunion theory'. It is an issue that stems from Kane's answer to the question 'Who among Tottenham players would like to bring to Munich the most?' at the Bayern Munich fan forum.
Kane's answer sparked hope that the English Premier League's reigning duo of the soul could reunite. Local media in England and Germany have presented several scenarios regarding the synergies and the possibility of reunification that their recombination can create.

Because of this history, the German media, in particular, paid attention to their recombination. Germany's Sport Bild is quite a possible transfer. Son Heung-min and Kane played in 298 games together for Tottenham. He scored a lot of goals. In particular, Son Heung-min played for Hamburg SV from 2008 to 2013 and Bayer Leverkusen from 2013 to 2015," he said.
Another German media outlet, TZ, also "Kane's idea is not absurd. Son started his career with Hamburg in the Bundesliga and grew up with Leverkusen. Thanks to this, Son Heung-min can speak German well and he can play all positions in Munich's attack with his ability to use both feet" he evaluated.

Most media are positive about the reunion of Son Heung-min and Kane. From the media's point of view, it can be seen as a very interesting subject matter.
However, Munich is not being swept away by this atmosphere. Above all, it is necessary to reconsider whether Kane's remarks are so important that they influence Munich's recruitment policy.
Obviously Son Heung-min and Kane's recombination can be a pretty cool picture. However, the club's recruitment policy is not made only by the wishes of certain players. It is true that Kane served as Munich's ace, but he is also only a second-year player who joined the team.

Tottenham has not expressed any position other than the policy that Son Heung-min, whose contract expires in June next year, will use the option of extending his contract for one year. Even though rumors of a transfer to Manchester United, Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Galatasaray broke out, they did not give any response. This means that Son Heung-min is only thinking about 'one-year extension option' regardless of such transfer rumors.
Therefore, there is a high possibility that 'Son Heung-min-Kane reunion' will end up as a happening. Above all, there is no reason for Munich to specifically consider recruiting a striker at this point. As a result, it is highly likely that Tottenham will end up with only one 'slul' that emerged because Tottenham does not make a different stance on Son Heung-min, who has about six months left before the expiration of his contract.
