Revealed: When & how ‘secret’ £57m Harry Kane transfer clause can be triggered - with Bayern Munich at risk of losing ex-Tottenham striker to the Premier League

Kane, having become Spurs’ all-time leading scorer, stepped out of his comfort zone in 2023 when heading to the Allianz Arena. He had to be patient in pursuit of elusive major honours, but broke his trophy curse when becoming a Bundesliga title winner in 2024-25.

He has since gone on to savour Supercup glory, with his remarkable tally of goals for Bayern standing at 98 through 103 appearances. The 32-year-old has been in red-hot form this season, netting two hat-tricks already, and appears set to make more history.

Kane has, however, been generating exit talk in Bavaria. There have been rumours of interest from Barcelona, while a return to England would allow the prolific No.9 to chase down Alan Shearer’s all-time Premier League goals record.

According to BILD, there is a £57 million ($77m) clause in Kane’s contract that can be triggered in the summer of 2026. In order for that cut-price fee to become active, the ex-Spurs star must inform Bayern of his intention to leave before the end of the winter window in January.

Speculation regarding Kane’s future is likely to intensify from this point, with one of the most fearsome frontmen in world football showing no sign of slowing down. BILD claim that rather than considering a sale, Bayern should be looking to extend Kane’s contract by a further 12 months through to 2028.
