Bayern Munich are willing to test uncertainty at Tottenham Hotspur with a persuasive offer for Harry Kane, as the German club seek a No 9 this summer. While the repeat Bundesliga champions would prioritise a younger profile, the fact Kane has only one year left on his contract makes a possible transfer appealing and at least worth pursuing.

Bayern have not been dissuaded from attempting a deal, but it is generally felt the 29-year-old wants to stay in England, especially in order to break Alan Shearer's Premier League goal record. That is even allowing for Kane's frustration with the lack of progress at Tottenham and yet another year of uncertainty after the departure of Antonio Conte. The choice of next manager will feed into the player's thinking this summer, as his contract continues to run.
