Tottenham coach Thomas Frank opened the door for Kane to return early this seasonwhile Barcelona have also been linked.

Update on Harry Kane’s transfer
“With Kane, Bayern can rightly think or say at the moment: ‘Okay, play for a team that suits you better and plays better football,’” revealed Brassell.
“I don’t think there is one when we talk about a team that really suits Harry Kane at this point.”
On Wednesday, Kane ended his own European goalscoring drought, scoring twice in a 2-0 win over Union Saint-Gilloise.
He is the second-best goalscorer in the Champions League and also the first Englishman to reach the 70-goal mark in UEFA competitions.
Brassell added: “We never really talk about Kane as if he were on stage [Lionel] Messi, [Cristiano] Ronaldo and [Kylian] Mbappe, [Erling] Haaland level. But come on, maybe we should do this.
“Maybe we should do that because what he can do to impact the game at any moment is really something.

“If I were her, I would feel really relaxed because he’s obviously doing so well.”
“They are obviously competitive in the Champions League this season and they will remain so next season unless something goes terribly wrong too.”
“It’s a strong position that can only get better from here. And the way he’s playing football at the moment is just so much fun.”
“Bayern have had a few reality checks in the transfer market recently, particularly Florian Wirtz and Nick Woltemade, because they thought they had both.”
“But with Kane I think they are entitled to be relaxed.
