Harry Kane has reportedly ‘reached an agreement’ to join Bayern Munich and put an end to a months-long transfer saga.
Tottenham Hotspur agreed to sell the England striker to the German club for a transfer fee worth in excess of €100 million (£86m) on Thursday after rejecting three previous bids.
However, reports quickly emerged that Kane was still considering the possibility of staying in north London for the forthcoming season.
But the 30-year-old will indeed leave his boyhood club before the Premier League campaign gets underway this Friday. The Athletic report that Kane has agreed personal terms with Bayern on a proposed four-year contract.
Additionally, German news outlet BILD report that Kane has been granted permission by Spurs to travel to Munich for a medical.
Kane’s contract expires in 2024, which would have enabled him to negotiate a pre-contract with foreign clubs ahead of a free transfer next summer.
Tottenham had hoped to tie Kane down to new terms to keep him at the club, but their efforts were ultimately futile.
The transfer will make Kane the third most expensive English footballer in history, after Declan Rice (£105m) and Jack Grealish (£100m).
