Alan Shearer has joked he will drive Harry Kane to Bayern Munich if the England captain decides to make a switch to the Bundesliga because the move will protect his Premier League goalscoring record.
Shearer scored a total of 260 Premier League goals during stints at Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle, while Kane has netted 213. And given he is just 29, it appears the only thing that will stop Kane from breaking Shearer's record is if he moves abroad.
Bayern are making a determined effort to sign Kane, who has also been linked with moves to Manchester United and Real Madrid, with former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel viewing him as the perfect replacement for Robert Lewandowski who joined Barcelona last year. Despite Tottenham's insistence that he is not for sale, Bayern are preparing a new £80m bid for Kane and believe he is ready to make the move to Germany.
