Harry Kane Plays Down Future Premier League Return
· Sports · BBC Sport, Sportstar, Sky News
Harry Kane has stated that the desire to return to England and break the Premier League all-time scoring record is no longer a priority for him. The striker joined Bayern Munich from Tottenham in 2023 for 86.4 million pounds and has scored 213 goals in the English top flight, leaving him 47 goals short of Alan Shearer's record of 260. Kane scored 61 goals in 51 appearances across all competitions last season as Vincent Kompany's side secured a league and cup double. Having entered the final 12 months of his four-year contract, Kane is set to begin discussions regarding a new deal with the German club. He received the Golden Shoe on Wednesday after finishing as the top scorer in the Bundesliga last season.
Why it matters
The decision removes the prospect of Kane returning to English football to challenge Alan Shearer's goalscoring record, securing his long-term future in the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich.
