According to a report from Abendzeitung reporter Maximilian Koch, Bayern Munich and Harry Kane are close to a new deal, but there is a roadblock — the Bavarians want to ink the Englishman to a two-year contract extension, while the Golden Shoe winner wants a three-year deal: What’s holding up Bayern Munich’s extension with Harry Kane? Now we know FC Bayern and Harry Kane have some talking to do. As AZ has learned, there’s a sticking point in the negotiations with Kane: FC Bayern would like to extend the 33-year-old’s contract by two years until 2029, while Kane himself would prefer a three-year extension until 2030. A two-year extension with an option for a third year is not a scenario the Munich club is aiming for. Therefore, further negotiations are necessary. In some respects, it is good that there is no issue with salary, but the extra year could give Bayern Munich’s brass some agita. Kane is 33-years-old and already likely far past the comfort zone for Bayern Munich in terms of age for a contract extension. However, Kane was spectacular last season and looks like he is not going to slow down any time soon. What do you say Bayern Munich fans — should Bayern Munich go up to three years on this deal?
