I doubt Bayern will attract Levy's attention this summer with a bid below £100m, and I am pretty confident that they will not offer that amount when he has just a year to go.
Kane isn't going to sign for anyone this summer IMO. Anyone wanting him is going to have to pay at least £80m as well as give Kane at least £300k a week in wages (and probably closer to £400k a week). In one year's time Kane can probably sign a 4 year contract on a free transfer for between £600k and close to £1m per week, a package of £120m to £200m. In six months' time he can agree a pre-contract with an overseas club for that same sort of money.

I do think there is alot in it for him to gain from leaving this summer personally above and beyond money that frankly he does not need and don't seem to be a driver. He gains back a year at a time he is at his peak, what value would he put on wastage staying somewhere he might not want to at 29, soon to be 30? Lots to be gained from a professional stand point if he really wanted to leave for a better footballing landscape IMO
Kane is not your A typical footballer, not sure his ambitions can be clearly worked out or pigeon holed as easily as other footballers.
Money does have to be a factor though, the next contract could set his grand kids up. Why wouldn’t he want to do that?
he is reportedly on around 200k a week, obviously amazing/dream money for me and you. But he could be looking in the region of a million a week for his next contract, if you offered to x5 my salary that would hard to turn down.
He is also on 25k a goal and other kick backs the guy is set up for life.
He will improve his wages in a move be it now or next summer regardless but what money do you place on a year of your life, the difference between 29/30/31 threshold which he is at his potentially huge and also with a caveat that post 34 and his peak, someone in football is going to pay big money for Kane and the twilight because its Kane.
He is not poor, if you offered me an extra year at a team to win something against seeing another go, with no real knock at Spurs here but the risks that entails? Its a bigger weighing up than just money IMO
Do you know what would be a shame, absolutely hilarious and the most sexy thing ever? If he left and we win a trophy the same season and he didn’t win anything.
This is the rub. We definitely want him to go abroad BUT Kane may simply not want to. So who calls the shots?.
It's interesting...For Bayern to make a 'formal bid' you'd have expected them to have at least spoken to HKs people to guage if a move abroad is something he'd be interested in in the first place.
What if we let him see out his contract, and then offer higher wages than anyone else?
I get what you’re saying though, but similarly if you offered me the same money to stay at spurs as I would get anywhere else, I would stay at spurs. As long as we were good enough to enable me to achieve my individual ambitions.
it would mean more to me to retire a spurs player than win the league (no way guaranteed) with Man U
Well a year is a long time, and for whatever reason, we may be the best offer in a year.He probably leaves.
We have offered him contracts. Yet he hasn't signed.
