With reports that there is a buyout clause between Harry Kane and Bayern Munich, attention is being paid to the possibility of returning to the English Premier League (EPL).
The fact that there is a buyout clause between Kane and Bayern is only known 18 months after the transfer. Journalists Christian Polk and Toby Altcheple, who work for Sport Bild in Germany, said on the 4th (Korean time) "Our information suggests Kane could insert a buyout clause as part of a great 2023 transfer from Tottenham to Bayern" he revealed. The two reporters are recognized as those with the best information on Bayern.
Kane left Tottenham in the summer of 2023. Tottenham promised the best treatment ever in the English Premier League (EPL) to catch Kane, but Kane, who desperately needed to win, had no intention of staying at Tottenham. At this time, the transfer was made as Bayern matched the transfer fee requested by Tottenham.
At this time, Kane demanded a buyout clause from Bayern to return to the EPL one day, which Bayern also accepted. The buyout clause between Kane and Bayern was conditional. The 80 million euro buyout clause was only valid until January 2025. If other clubs had paid 80 million euros to sign Kane in this transfer window, they would have had a golden opportunity to take Kane.
With the end of the winter transfer window, the 80 million euro buyout clause disappeared. There is another buyout clause. Sport Bild added "The buyout clause will be effective again from next winter and may be triggered until the summer transfer window of 2026. Bayern will receive a transfer fee of 65 million euros (about 97.7 billion won). Kane will be a free agent in the summer of 2027."
In the summer of 2026, Kane may be burdened with 65 million euros for him to be 33 years old, but if Kane is still in form, there will be countless teams signing Kane for 65 million euros. The British Telegraph reported on the 6th that "Kane had a release clause that could facilitate his return to England when he signed for Bayern. Kane is very happy in Germany and has no intention of activating the buyout clause anytime soon, but it has been found that Kane's Bayern contract has a buyout clause. EPL clubs already know that Kane's release clause exists, which could be crucial to a potential return to England."
Everyone knows Kane wants to play in the EPL. Kane could have been the hero of Alan Shearer's most goals ever in the EPL, which was unlikely to be broken forever if he remained at Tottenham. Kane will be able to challenge the Shearer record if he keeps his skills even if he returns at a late age.
With Kane's possible return to the EPL, attention is also being paid to the reunion with Tottenham. Kane left Tottenham, but his affection for Tottenham remains. Tottenham also signed a gentleman's agreement by selling Kane to Bayern. If Tottenham negotiates with other clubs for Kane to leave Bayern, Kane and Bayern must inform Tottenham of this.
The Telegraph also added "Kane's top priority clause when he moved to Bayern in 2023. This could be triggered the moment Bayern agree to sell Kane, when Kane wants to return to Tottenham", he explained. For example, if another club pays Kane's transfer fee and Bayern accepts it, Tottenham will be able to gain negotiating authority over Kane by paying the same transfer fee. However, Kane has the right to decide whether to return to Tottenham.
However, it is known that neither Bayern nor Kane has considered a transfer yet. European transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano said on his personal SNS on the 7th that `Cain has no plans to leave Bayern in the summer at the moment, and he is very satisfied at the club. EPL clubs are aware of the buyout clause, but have yet to contact the player. Tottenham have matching rights, Kane has the final authority"
