Harry Kane has wished Tottenham Hotspur well as speculation swirls over a possible return, but the forward appears settled in Munich and focused on the immediate targets at Bayern.<\/p>\n
Reports have suggested Kane can trigger a \u20ac65 million (\u00a356.6 million, $75.6 million) release clause next summer if notice is submitted by the end of January. That possibility has prompted talk of a move back to Spurs \u2014 who finally ended a 17-year trophy drought last season \u2014 while Manchester United and Barcelona have also been linked.<\/p>\n
New Spurs boss Thomas Frank publicly said Kane would be welcome to return. The player himself, however, made clear his current priorities lie elsewhere. \u201cI\u2019m not sure [if I\u2019ll go back],\u201d Kane told the Daily Mail when quizzed on Spurs. \u201cI\u2019m very happy here in Munich. [Leaving] is not something I\u2019m thinking about. It\u2019ll always be \u2018we\u2019 [with Spurs] because I spent my whole life there. I\u2019m a fan of them and will always watch them and see how they\u2019re getting on. They will always be a part of my life for sure but as for now, I\u2019m loving it here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kane enjoyed seeing former team-mate Son Heung-min lift the Europa League trophy and retains friends among the players and staff at Tottenham. \u201c[Winning the Europa League] was big for everyone…hopefully they can push on and win more,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
For now Kane is intent on delivering for Bayern. He spoke of a clear ambition to convert opportunities into trophies for the reigning Bundesliga champions and pointed to the chance of success across domestic cups and Europe. \u201cWe\u2019ve got a great chance for all the trophies this year. Whenever you start a season with Bayern, you\u2019re favourites. We haven\u2019t had great cup runs since I\u2019ve been here so we want to try and put that right,\u201d Kane explained. \u201cThen in the Champions League, it\u2019s still early stages but ultimately it\u2019s about trying to win the competition. And going into the World Cup, you want to be at your best. ]<\/p>\n
