Kane plays down returning to Premier League in future
Harry Kane says "the itch isn't there as much anymore" to one day return to England from Germany and try and break the all-time scoring record in the Premier League.
Harry Kane has stated that the urge to return to the Premier League and attempt to break the all-time scoring record is less pronounced now that he is playing for Bayern Munich. The striker left Tottenham in 2023 after scoring 213 goals in the English top flight, 47 goals shy of Alan Shearer's record of 260. Kane has been in excellent form for both club and country since his move to Munich, netting 73 goals last season.
He is nearing the end of his current four-year contract, signed after his £86.4m transfer from Tottenham three years ago, but is expected to begin negotiations for a new deal with Bayern. Kane expressed his satisfaction at Bayern, crediting the team, manager, and his family for his contentment in Munich. While he acknowledges the possibility of a future return, he is currently focused on Bayern Munich, recognizing that the team and coaching staff have brought out the best in his performance.
