England captain Harry Kane is reportedly planning a return to the Premier League after completing one more season with Bayern Munich, aiming to surpass Alan Shearer’s all-time Premier League goal record.
Kane’s Bundesliga Success
Since his move to Bayern Munich in 2023 for over £100 million, Kane has been prolific, scoring 80 goals in 89 appearances. His efforts contributed to Bayern securing the 2024/25 Bundesliga title, marking Kane’s first major trophy in his career.
Premier League Return on the Horizon
Despite a contract running until 2027, Kane is expected to activate a £54 million release clause, facilitating a move back to the Premier League. His primary motivation is to break Alan Shearer’s record of 260 Premier League goals. Currently, Kane has 213 goals in 320 appearances, placing him second on the all-time list.
Former Manchester United star Gary Neville has expressed confidence in Kane‘s return, stating that clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, and Arsenal would be eager to sign him. Neville emphasized Kane’s professionalism and goal-scoring prowess, suggesting that his presence is missed in the Premier League.
Future Prospects
While Kane has publicly stated his contentment at Bayern Munich, the allure of breaking Shearer’s record and returning to English football remains strong. His potential return is anticipated to be a significant event in the upcoming transfer window, with several top Premier League clubs likely to express interest.
