You're better than russian propaganda. Look at 5 more years and add finals. Bayern won CL twice then and played in the final 4 times. Only Real has better statistics in this period. How many clubs in the XXI century have played 3 times in a row in the CL final? Bayern is one of them.

How do you know that his aim is to be popular outside the UK as opposed to being popular in the UK, where he'll presumably live once his career ends?

It doesn't matter where Kane will live after his career is over. More popularity = more money. I don't know anyone who would rather earn less than more. Unfortunately, Kane is a local brand. To become a global brand without leaving the Premier League, he would need to win CL or WC/EC with England.
Messi even has ads in the Indian market. No wonder, as it is next to China the biggest market for the companies with which he has contracts. Why did Ronaldo move from Real to Italy and Lewandowski from Bayern to Barca? They were changing better clubs for worse. They wanted to conquer more markets.

I mentioned Beckham cuz I think he was a worse footballer than Kane. However, he squeezed much more out of his career. Both in terms of sport and marketing (in which he is an absolute master). It's better to ask where he didn't play, instead of where he played (England, Spain, Italy, France, USA).

It feels a really weird saga - it’s like Spurs and Kane just aren’t talking to each other at all.

Levy is supposedly mad at Bayern for tapping up Kane but at the same time is desperately hoping Kane signs a new contract. He seems to be ignoring the fact that if Kane is prepared to consider going to Bayern he must be utterly desperate to get out of Spurs as soon as possible. Hardly the behaviour of someone who is about to commit the rest of his career to the club.

Conversely, Kane must know that his best chance of forcing a move this summer is to end this delusion that there’s any chance of him re-signing. Just make a public statement that you’ve loved your time at Spurs but want to explore new opportunities, either next summer or before. Heck, if you really want to put Levy into full panic mode, add that you are a great admirer of the football Arsenal play.

However, this plays out it’s going to be an entertaining ride. I’ve currently got a lot of sympathy for Kane but if he does end up signing a new contract it will be hilarious.

It's actually not that weird imo. That bald cnut knows very well he has to sell and Kane has absolutely no intention to sign a new contract.

Levy made all the noises about refusing to sell, trying to make Kane sign a new contract etc. only to make the clubs who want Kane into making higher bids or better, a bidding war so he can maximize the cash. That bald greedy prick was simply bluffing.

But as no club are stupid they all know they'd sign Kane for free in another year so none bid higher than what's fair. Levy got desperate and simply 'forget' his initial stance "we won't sell Kane whatsoever the bid" and basically told Bayern to increase their bid. But even so he's simply too greedy to even set a price he'd accept. Hence the 'Bayern need to increase their bid to €100m and I might refuse even that'. All this is simply quite childish and laughable imo. Don't think Bayern would bulge anytime soon. They're simply too smart for this.

This would be dragged for quite a while imo. Unless that bald cnut stop being too greedy.

How many of the Bayern players who won in 2013 are still there? I doubt Kane would be thinking about the 3 finals in 4 years over a decade ago in his decision, incidently United also made 3 finals in 4 years around the same time.

Fact is other than 2020, Bayern hasn't made another final in 10 years.

All your examples has more to do with Real & Barca's popularity around the world which Bayern is not anywhere close to.

Now if Real were interested, I'd say he's much more likely to give up on the PL record to go.

That's also how I understood it. My post was more meant as a comment to how absurd Levy's take is, not to attack you. Sorry if it came across as such. :*

yeah

His comments regarding Bayern Munich are quite derogatory and disturbing.

It makes no difference whether we consider CL results from 10, 15 or 20 years. Most of the players from such a period have already ended their careers. For example, Real no longer have key players who won the champions league 3x in a row (BBC). This year, Bayern was unlucky to play against City in 1/8. Against any other opponent (Real, Inter, Napoli, etc) they would have been favourites.

As for Real, I agree. It would be the perfect club for Kane, adding up the financial returns + chances of sporting success. La liga is not just about capturing the Spanish market, but all of Latin America. Perez doesn't want Kane, his loss. The case for Bayern is mainly the latter. However, when he enters a new market, there could also be considerable financial gains.

Levy really, really, really promises he will give me 300k a week and he can leave whenever he wants, just sign this 4 year contract at 200k and we promise, pinky promise to pay you more.

Kane probably watched Austin Powers and thought Dr. Evil is an actual genius.

I dislike them a lot but Bayern IS a giant club. If he has a chance to go there, he will be stupid to turn it down.
 
He isn't signing a new contract, 300k/week is a joke for someone who can get a 20m signing-on fee next year.

Waste of a career.

I very much disagree. Even though I’d love to have him at Bayern. It’s a matter of personal preference. If Kane feels attached to Tottenham and wants to spend his entire career there, I highly respect that. There is more to sports than the pursuit of titles and money. Success can be measured in many forms. Becoming a legend at one’s favourite club, maybe even the biggest legend in that clubs history, is a huge achievement in my opinion. If Kane decides to do so, he can one day look back at his career with pride and joy. No matter how much or how little he won in the end.
 
Hojlund now, and Kane in January for £60M if he hasn't signed a new contract with Spurs.

I think you’re underestimating United’s global reach. Rooney has done very well despite spending most of his career at United (certainly compared to Kane so far).

Bundesliga simply doesn’t have the global reach the Prem or LaLiga does

That depends on the alternatives, Bayern are certainly much bigger than Spurs, there’s no doubt about it.

But if the alternatives are Real or United, he’d be stupid to go there.

Only one: Real Madrid. Bayern haven't done that.

My mistake, indeed they did have a gap year. But still, in the 21st century teams that have made 3 CL finals in 4 consecutive seasons are not too many.

If he wants to win trophies, he should choose Bayern. Even at Real, his chances of winning trophies are not as good as in Germany. Let's look what odds were before the start of last season to win: Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Champions League. You underestimate Bayern, the bookies who can't be wrong, value them much more than you do.

Who says that everyone is driven by money? Kane is a worldwide brand because he’s a world class player playing in the biggest, most popular league in the world. He has a young family in England, he’s just building a new home, he has roots in place that would make moving country more difficult than say a Sancho or Bellingham. He’s already a very wealthy man.

I think money will have very little bearing on his decision, he’s already showed that it doesn’t drive his decisions in the past. Not to mention that the easiest way to earn more would be to sit tight and bag a huge signing on fee, not move to Bayern.

I love the history of Bayern, they’re a huge club. But from a marketing perspective, they’re inferior to United, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool, PSG, City etc Go to any country and you see kids wearing those shirts because their idols have played for them.
 
This fecker has never won a trophy in his career. I can’t believe he’s considering it.
 
Still hoping he is on market in January with a view to getting him next summer. Harry just have the guts to sit this out and will pick you up when sale actually goes through
