Bayern Munich make a second transfer offer for Tottenham striker Harry Kane

Bayern Munich made a second offer for Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane.

The Bundesliga champions received an initial bid of €70m plus add-ons for the England captain, which was rejected last month.

They have raised this offer and are awaiting Tottenham’s response.

Kane has one year left on his current contract in north London, and the club are still hoping to convince him to extend the contract.

Bayern are looking for a new striker this summer with coach Thomas Tuchel already discussing a possible move with Kane.

The 29-year-old has been a target for Manchester United since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was manager, and current boss Erik ten Hag is a known fan too.

Manchester City had previously explored the possibility of signing him two years ago before going ahead with a deal for Erling Haaland the following summer.

while, the athlete It was reported in June that Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti told the club’s board of directors that he wanted to sign Kane in an important meeting to discuss transfers.

Kane’s contract negotiations with Tottenham were suspended last season with the striker focused instead on trying to help the club return to the Champions League.

However, after a chaotic season, Tottenham missed out on European football altogether after finishing in eighth place.

He has yet to win a trophy domestically or internationally, but broke Tottenham’s all-time record in February when he scored his 267th goal for Jimmy Greaves. He became England’s record goalscorer the following month.

It’s easy to see why series champions Germany have made Kane their number one priority this summer. He’s two players in one: a striker who’s great in the penalty area but adept at carrying the ball and playing fast runners – which Bayern Munich have in abundance – gets him past.

Keane will usually drift into the half-spaces in attacking phases to try and play a killer ball between the lines – usually to open up the defense or play the ‘pass before assist’ – rather than always having the striker prowl the area between the goalposts.

Tuchel’s possession game will be greatly enhanced by the technical striker who can create depth by drawing in defenders from the backline. At the same time, Kane can also play as a more traditional goal man, holding the ball for his team’s midfielders to join the attack.

He is simply a leading goalscorer and setter for club and country.
