Thomas Frank said he would welcome Harry Kane back to his former club amid reports the striker has a release clause in his Bayern Munich contract.<\/p>\n
\u201cPersonally, I don\u2019t think he will do it right now if I\u2019m honest. He\u2019ll probably stay in Bayern and continue performing well. He was top scorer last year, won the championship and he\u2019s doing fantastic now.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know what he\u2019s thinking. Myself, I\u2019m a traveller, I like to travel, I like to explore things as well. He\u2019s been here for many years so why not enjoy the time at Bayern a little bit more? But he\u2019s welcome. If he wants to join us, he\u2019s more than welcome!\u201d<\/p>\n
Reports suggest Kane can activate a release clause next summer that would allow a club to sign him for \u20ac65 million (\u00a356.8 million, $76.3 million). Barcelona and Manchester United have been linked alongside the possibility of a return. Frank was careful to temper expectation while confirming a willingness to consider a reunion.<\/p>\n
Kane began the 2025\u201326 season in fine form, the draft noted, with 13 goals in seven appearances in all competitions. His Bundesliga numbers included eight goals and three assists in four appearances.<\/p>\n
Tottenham moved on after Kane\u2019s exit, signing Dominic Solanke and breaking their transfer record in the process. Solanke suffered fitness problems in Frank\u2019s early days, and Randal Kolo Muani arrived on loan on deadline day. The club also said goodbye to Son Heung-min, who left for LAFC over the summer.<\/p>\n
Kane left for Bayern in August 2023 as the most expensive Bundesliga signing in league history. His first season there finished without a trophy as Thomas Tuchel departed; Tuchel later became the England national team manager, reuniting with his former striker.<\/p>\n
Both Kane and Tottenham ended long trophy waits last season, with Kane winning the Bundesliga and the club lifting the Europa League. Whether a move will happen, especially in a World Cup year, remains to be seen, but Frank made clear the door is open and the player would be welcome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
