The England captain has been a standout figure since joining from Tottenham Hotspur in a deal worth up to 100 million pounds in 2023, scoring an astonishing 138 goals in 141 appearances. With just one year set to remain on his current deal at the end of the season, Bayern are now ready to formalise plans to extend his stay.

Senior club figure Karl-Heinz Rummenigge confirmed that discussions will take place after the campaign, making it clear that the intention is to keep Kane in Munich.

"Bringing Harry Kane to Bayern Munich was a major coup in the club's history," Rummenigge said. "It's well known that he had a release clause. He didn't activate it, signalling that he would definitely stay in Munich.

"And now, the relevant management in the operational area - as agreed - will hold talks with him sometime after the season, with the clear aim of extending his contract."

Kane's decision not to trigger that clause has been viewed internally as a strong indication of his commitment to the club, where he has settled both professionally and personally.

Beyond his goalscoring, Rummenigge highlighted how Kane has evolved under head coach Vincent Kompany, taking on a more creative role within the team.

"He's always been a great striker who scored a lot of goals, but now he's a playmaker, dropping back into midfield and using his wonderful long passes to bring Michael Olise and Luis Díaz into the game," he explained. "That's very important for our style of play."

Kane's all-round influence has been central to Bayern's continued dominance domestically, with the striker already winning two Bundesliga titles, while also helping the club reach the semi-finals of this season's UEFA Champions League. They are set to face Paris Saint-Germain for a place in the final.

Attention is not only on Kane, however, with Bayern equally determined to retain their emerging stars. Rummenigge delivered a firm message to potential suitors of Michael Olise, who has impressed since arriving from Crystal Palace.

"For a player like Olise, there's no price tag that would make us flinch," he said. "He's a wonderful player. I also appreciate how reserved and almost media-shy he is. That's rare these days. He's a great guy and on the pitch he's outstanding."

With Kane central to Bayern's present and future, the upcoming negotiations are expected to be a key step in maintaining the club's attacking core for years to come.
