Contract runs to 2029

Bayern Munich announced on Thursday, 5 November 2026, that Harry Kane has agreed a new deal running until 30 June 2029. The club published the news in a video on its website and in a statement issued that morning. The 33-year-old had been in the final year of his contract, which was due to expire at the end of the current season. Negotiations had dragged on for months before both sides reached agreement. The deal removes uncertainty about the striker's future at the club. The England captain, who was awarded the 2026 Ballon d'Or, will therefore stay in Munich for two more seasons.

Record at Bayern

Kane has scored 156 goals and provided 42 assists in 161 competitive matches for the Bavarian club. In the 2025-26 season alone he scored 73 goals in 65 matches. He arrived from Tottenham Hotspur in summer 2023, a transfer reported as just under 100 million euros in one account and as a fee of £86m in another. During his time in Munich he has won the German championship twice, the DFB-Pokal once and the Supercup twice. He was also named Germany's Footballer of the Year in 2026 and has twice won the Golden Shoe as Europe's leading scorer.
