  "account": "Bayern Munich and Harry Kane have resumed contract negotiations with a release clause in play, according to Sport Bild. The initial discussions took place weeks ago, with both parties agreeing to extend Kane's contract beyond 2027, with a possible run until 2029. Kane is open to signing a longer deal, aiming to secure the new contract by the 2030 World Cup in England. It is reported that Kane's current salary of around €25 million per season would not be reduced in the case of a shorter contract. However, the financial terms for an extended deal remain under discussion. The Kane camp is reportedly willing to include a release clause in the contract, similar to the €80 million clause granted in 2025 and a €65 million clause for 2026. Both the player and Bayern Munich remain confident of reaching an agreement, with Kane and his family feeling secure in Munich.",
