Harry Kane confirms new Bayern Munich contract is ‘extremely close’ as Ballon d’Or winner prepares for Atletico Madrid test

Harry Kane has confirmed that he is on the verge of signing a new contract with Bayern Munich, with an official announcement expected in the coming days. The England captain, fresh from being crowned the best player in the world, is ready to commit his future to the Allianz Arena as he enters the final stages of his current deal.

Contract extension nears completion
The 33-year-old striker is approaching the conclusion of the initial four-year agreement he signed upon arriving from Tottenham in 2023. Following a stellar campaign featuring 73 goals, two domestic trophies, and a third-place World Cup finish with England, Bayern are eager to secure his services long-term.

The newly crowned Ballon d’Or winner confirmed an extension is now purely a matter of resolving minor legal technicalities. Speaking ahead of a crucial European tie, the forward expressed confidence that negotiations will conclude swiftly.

Kane expects an announcement in days
Addressing the media ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash against Atletico Madrid, the England skipper provided a highly positive update on his future. “I would say it is more [a matter of] days,” Kane explained. “There has been good conversations over this weekend and today as well.

“I know I keep saying we are close, but we are extremely close now. Details are just details in every contract. A lot of the bigger stuff has been ironed out and we are happy with, but in every contract there is loads of little things that go into it, small details that in the end the lawyers have to thrash out and figure out.

“So all in all I would say it is more days than weeks. From what I have heard, the conversations have gone well again today and hopefully we will be in a place to do something within the next few days.”
