Spurs want to extend
If FC Bayern officials have their way, top scorer Robert Lewandowski will fulfill his contract at Säbener Straße, which runs until 2023, despite his repeated public request to change. If, contrary to expectations, the 33-year-old Pole gets his will and the green light to move to favorite FC Barcelona, the record champions would need a top-class replacement. Interest in a potential Lewandowski successor is now being reported in Italy.

Like the Italian transfer expert, among others Alfredo Pedulla writes, FC Bayern is said to have asked about attacker Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur. The report, which should be treated with caution, shows that considerations of a possible transfer are still in the early stages. Regardless, Tottenham plan to extend figurehead Kane’s contract, which ends in 2024. According to the “Bild” reporter Christian Falk there is nothing wrong with the Bayern rumor about Kane.

How good Tottenham’s chances are of keeping the 28-year-old Englishman is uncertain. A transfer to Munich is likely to prove to be an extremely unrealistic undertaking given its 100 million market value and the notorious tenacity of Spurs boss Daniel Levy. In addition, FC Bayern would have to break their own transfer record, which was previously held by defender Lucas Hernández (26) with a transfer fee of 80 million euros, despite the vaunted reluctance due to the effects of the corona virus.

What Lewandowski and Kane have in common: The Tottenham clipper also thought about saying goodbye about a year ago. In May 2021, the national player did not directly confirm in the YouTube format “The Overlap” that he wanted to leave, but at least expressed his displeasure with the sporting situation at his employer and announced talks with Chairman Levy. At the time, he didn’t know where he would be playing the following year: “I mean, maybe he (Levy, ed.) would like to sell me too. He might be thinking, ‘If I can get £100m for you, why not?’ I won’t be worth that much in two or three years.” Kane is said to have asked for his release and Manchester City was ready to put together a package worth over 150 million euros. At the end of August 2021, Kane, who had denied rumors of a training strike, ended all discussions and announced his whereabouts in London.

FC Bayern wants new offensive power: Focus on Mané and Kalajdzic
The alleged interested party FC Bayern is aware of the concrete advertising of Liverpool’s Sadio Mané. The 30-year-old Senegalese, for whom the Reds are said to be asking at least £40m (€46.9m), is primarily intended for the offensive wings. Lewandowski’s deputy Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is also dealing with a departure – the 33-year-old could move to Qatar, according to “Bild”. So there is a need in the storm center of Munich, Stuttgart’s Sasa Kalajdzic (24) was last traded.

Tottenham, on the other hand, are said to be interested in Lautaro Martínez. The 24-year-old Argentinian has a long-term commitment to Inter Milan until 2026. Spurs coach Antonio Conte is crazy about the attacker, reports Pedullà. Problematic for him: Martínez, with a market value of 75 million euros the most valuable player in the Inter squad, has no intention of leaving the Nerazzurri.
