In a significant twist in the Harry Kane transfer saga, BILD reporter Christian Falk has revealed that the English striker has reached an agreement with Bayern Munich.
Personal terms have been agreed upon, leaving only the transfer fee as the remaining obstacle to overcome between Bayern and Tottenham.
He tweeted:
“Bayern and Harry Kane have reached an agreement in principle on a transfer for this summer. the family of Kane (father and Brother) conducted the negotations. The prerequisite for the transfer is now: an agreement with Tottenham”

This comes after Bayern launched an initial £60m plus add-ons bid for Kane earlier today which was swiftly rejected by Spurs.
The offer was well off Tottenham’s £100m demand for their star striker.
Bayern are expected to come again with an improved offer.
The revelation that Kane has already agreed to personal terms with Bayern changes the dynamics of the entire situation. While there had been silence from Kane’s camp until now, this indication that he wants the move adds a new dimension to the transfer saga.
His current contract expires next summer which means if Spurs do not cash in on him this summer, they could lose him on a free next year.
With Kane now wanting to leave, perhaps Daniel Levy’s stance will change and he could sell him to the German club if they come close to their valuation.
This is an interesting development and it remains to be seen where this saga goes from here. It is also interesting to see how the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester United and PSG respond to this as all three had reportedly made him their priority signing.
