In recent weeks, there has been a lot of speculation surrounding a Premier League return for former Tottenham striker Harry Kane. The 32-year-old, who has now scored 100 goals in 104 appearances since joining the Bundesliga giants in 2023, has a £56m release clause in his contract, which a number of clubs are said to be open to activating next summer .
Tottenham would welcome re-signing Kane, while Man United – who have long appreciated the England captain – are also interested. However, a return to the Premier League would only be possible if he wanted it, and right now, it has not come into his thinking.
Harry Kane not thinking about Premier League return in 2026
As per Fabrizio Romano, Kane spoke to the media after Bayern Munich’s 4-0 victory over Werder Bremen on Friday, and he made it clear that he is only thinking about staying on at the reigning Bundesliga champions.
“No, I’m not thinking about a Premier League return at the moment. I’m really happy here. I have two years left on my contract, and I’m enjoying every moment. Bayern is the best place to win trophies, absolutely.”
Should Kane come back to the Premier League in 2026?
Kane has made a sensational start to the new season, having scored 15 goals in only eight appearances for Bayern. He continues to prove himself as being one of the best strikers in world football, so it would be a benefit to anyone if he were to join them in 2026.
However, there are no indications that he should leave Bayern, where he appears to be very settled. There is every chance that he commits his future to the Bavarian club before next summer’s transfer window opens for business in June, which would be a blow for Tottenham, Man United and co.
