Bayern Munich’s star striker, Harry Kane, has expressed his willingness to extend his contract with the Bavarian club, ruling out any interest in a transfer to another team.
The player, whose current contract with the Bundesliga giant expires in the summer of 2027, has been linked with rumors of possible moves, including speculation about a return to the Premier League.
Kane is currently in familiar territory, as Bayern faces Arsenal in an exciting Champions League match in North London.
The signing has been one of the best decisions of my life.

The forward, who arrived at Bayern from Tottenham in 2023, emphasized his satisfaction in Munich.
“Experiencing a new league, a team like Bayern Munich, these European nights, the atmosphere in the German league, has been a big step in my career and has helped me improve as a player,” Kane declared.
I’m quite open to staying longer. The way we are now and the way we are playing, I feel we are one of the best teams in Europe, for sure.

The 32-year-old player added: “I don’t look at any other team and think, ‘I want to go there’. I’m very happy here. I have 18 months left on my contract and I’m sure there will be conversations in the future.”Harry Murphy/Getty ImagesKane also commented on the Premier League, calling it “less enjoyable” this season due to the current focus on set-piece plays, a trend that Arsenal has led.
“Watching the Premier League is probably a bit less enjoyable than in recent years, to be honest,” he added.
“But that’s the evolution of football. Sometimes it comes like that and that’s the case this year. Arsenal capitalized on that and is a really strong team in set pieces.
“Obviously, we analyze what they do well and their threats and how we can try to stop that. The best way to stop that is not to concede plays on set pieces.”
Kane also admitted that scoring against Arsenal gives him “a little more joy” than against any other club.
He has scored 15 goals in 21 appearances against the Gunners, including one for Bayern at the Emirates in the first leg of their quarter-final in 2024.
“Maybe subconsciously that’s the case. I think obviously with Tottenham, it was always a big game,” he said.
“I have many friends who are Arsenal fanatics, many friends who are Tottenham fanatics. There is a feeling about it.
“With Bayern, it’s a bit different because obviously we don’t play against them much. We played against them a couple of years ago in the quarter-finals, which was a great win for us.”
“From my point of view, maybe it will only give me a little more joy, but ultimately, it also comes down to winning the match.”
