Harry Kane’s Bayern Love Story: Why He Might Never Come Back
England’s captain hints that his Premier League comeback might not happen after all.
Harry Kane seems more settled than ever in Munich — and it’s showing. The England skipper, now deep into his second season at Bayern, has admitted that a return to England might not be part of his future plans anymore.
“I could definitely see myself staying longer,” Kane said with a smile. “We haven’t had those talks yet, but if Bayern wanted to chat, I’d be open to it. Everything depends on what we achieve together — right now, things are going great.”
No rush, no regrets
When Kane left Tottenham two years ago, many expected him to return someday and chase down Alan Shearer’s Premier League goals record. But that goal no longer seems to drive him as much as it once did.
“If you’d asked me when I first moved, I’d have said ‘yes, I’ll come back one day.’ Now? Maybe not. I still love English football, but I’m all in with Bayern,” he said.
Kane’s contract runs until 2027, and there’s no sense of urgency to discuss the future. “I’m calm. I love the club, I love the manager, and as long as we’re improving together, I’m happy.”
Hungry for more trophies
After finally lifting a major trophy with Bayern last season, Kane’s motivation hasn’t faded — if anything, it’s grown stronger. He’s already scored 19 goals for club and country this season, and the chase for silverware continues.
“I would love to win the Ballon d’Or,” he admitted. “But that comes from team success — you need to win the Champions League or the World Cup. That’s the next step.”
The 32-year-old believes his game has evolved in Germany. “I see football differently now. The intensity, the tactics, the discipline — it’s the highest level I’ve ever experienced,” Kane said.
Cleaner diet, stronger mindset
Winning the Bundesliga didn’t make him complacent. “After you finally win something, it could be easy to relax. But it actually pushed me harder. I’m eating cleaner, training smarter, even cutting down on cheat meals,” he laughed. “At this level, small things make a big difference.”
As England prepare for their upcoming matches against Wales and Latvia, Kane’s leadership remains vital. “The energy in the squad is really good,” he said. “That’s the standard we want to keep.”
It seems like Harry Kane has found his balance — and for now, that balance lies firmly in Munich.
