Harry Kane had just 12 months left on his current contract at Tottenham and wanted to remain at the club but has now agreed to leave for Bayern Munich.
North London club Tottenham Hotspur will start the new Premier League season without their skipper Harry Kane.
Kane is set to leave the club after over a decade and is Bayern Munich bound.
According to the Athletic, the Spurs legend will join Bayern Munich this summer after accepting the decision to leave the Premier League.
Kane to Bayern
After much delay, the England international has agreed to move away from his boyhood club.
The 30-year-old is expected to put pen to paper on a four-year deal with Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich this summer.
Per the report, Kane will depart for Germany once he gets a green light from Tottenham to travel for his medical and complete the highly anticipated move to the Bavarians.
Pulse Sports Nigeria reported that Spurs had accepted a deal from the German champions for the club legend on Thursday.
Both clubs reached an agreement to a deal worth around a hundred million euros, with Kane hoping the situation would be resolved before the start of the Premier League season.
Initial resistance from Kane
There were indicators that Kane would love to remain at the club despite Spurs’ agreement with Bayern.
Kane, who is the club’s and Premier League’s second-highest-ever scorer, has enjoyed life so far under new manager Ange Postecoglou who always admitted he was not certain the club legend would
He also had a year left on his current contract at Spurs, who prefer to cash in now than lose him for free next summer having failed in their efforts to tie him down to a new contract.
However, Kane has now accepted the transfer that will see him leave England for the first time and also misses the chance to break Alan Shearer’s record of 260 Premier League goals.
Bayern Munich will be happy to finally have their man after Spurs rejected three bids from the Bavarians before the breakthrough this week.
Kane scored four goals against Shakhtar Donetsk in a pre-season friendly match on Sunday, in what now looks like his last game for Spurs.
He leaves the club as their all-time top scorer with 280 goals in just 435 matches.
