‘Itch’ to return to Premier League is gone – Kane

Former Tottenham striker Harry Kane has stated that his ambition to return to England and break the Premier League’s all-time scoring record no longer holds the same allure since his move to Bayern Munich. The England captain, who scored 213 goals in the Premier League before transferring in 2023, expected to eventually make a return to England to attempt to surpass Alan Shearer’s record of 260 goals.

However, Kane now feels his experiences in Germany have shifted his perspective. According to BBC Sport, Kane remarked that the "itch" to return is less strong now. Over the past season, Kane has scored an impressive 73 goals while in Munich, and he is set to enter the final year of his four-year contract with the German club. The striker expressed his contentment with life in Munich, praising the team, the manager, and his growing appreciation for European football.

While Kane did not explicitly rule out a potential return to England, he emphasized that his current focus lies with Bayern Munich.
