Son Heung-min (31, Tottenham)’s ‘best friend’ and world-class striker Harry Kane (30) is expected to become a colleague of Kim Min-jae (27, Bayern Munich). Reports have emerged that Tottenham have accepted an offer from Bayern Munich.
Sports expert The Athletic reported on the 10th (Korean time) that “Tottenham accepted Munich’s transfer fee of more than 100 million euros (approximately 145 billion won).” “Remaining or transferring now depends on Kane’s decision,” he said.
The media said, “Kane is known to be inclined to remain satisfied with Tottenham’s new manager Engie Postecoglu,” and “However, the key is how Kane will react to the agreement between the two sides.”
Bayern Munich risked life and death by offering transfer fees four times for the signing of Kane this summer. Munich suffered from the absence of a forward striker last year when Robert Lewandowski moved to Barcelona, Spain. For this reason, he offered three high transfer fees for Kane’s recruitment, but was rejected due to Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy’s stubborn stance.

However, Tottenham was in a position to sell Kane to some extent. Kane signed a contract with Tottenham until the summer of 2024, and if Kane did not renew the contract, next year he would become a free agent (FA) and had to be released without a transfer fee. There is also an analysis that President Levy’s rejection of Munich’s proposal every time was a calculation to receive a high transfer fee.
The Athletic said, “Munich will offer Kane an annual salary of 25 million pounds (about 42 billion won),” and “the equivalent of 480,000 pounds (about 800 million won) per week, more than double Kane’s current salary.” Reported.

Kane is the best striker representing the English Premier League (EPL). In his personal career, he scored 213 goals in 317 matches, and last season scored 30 goals in the league, ranking second in the scoring rankings behind Elling Hollan (36 goals).
However, it is regrettable that the combination of Son Heung-min and Kane is broken. The two jointly scored 47 goals, the highest in the EPL, and established themselves as ‘EPL’s best combination’. When Kane moves to Munich, it seems that he will have a relationship with another Korean player, Kim Min-jae.
