"Yeah, the conversation is going very well for Harry Kane," Fabrizio Romano said on his podcast, and that is where the Bayern Harry Kane story stands. Reports now point to a new deal through 2029, with the salary agreed in principle and only the final details still to settle. A signing has not yet been scheduled, but Bayern München are clearly moving in the right direction.

The deal terms still being worked out

Florian Plettenberg said there was a breakthrough in principle between Kane and Bayern over a new contract. He also reported that the plan is for Kane to extend through 2029, while the last details are still being clarified.

Romano said the financial side is already agreed, including salary and bonuses. What remains is the length of the contract and the eventual release clause. He also said Kane had a special clause that could have taken him back to English clubs in 2025 and 2026, but he did not take it because he was very happy at Bayern.

Kane's current deal runs to the end of the season, so Bayern's push is not just about adding years. It is about stopping the story from drifting any further while one of their most important players is still delivering at a strong rate.

Kane's output explains the urgency

Kane has 6 goals in 7 all-competition appearances in 2026, and 3 of those goals have come in 4 Bundesliga matches. Bayern are second in the Bundesliga with 10 points from 4 matches, have scored 14 and conceded 2, and that kind of start makes the extension push pretty easy to understand.

The club's next Bundesliga match is away to FC Augsburg on 2026-10-10. By then, Bayern will still be trying to finish the remaining contract details that stand between this breakthrough in principle and a signed extension through 2029.
