Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has been in impressive form for FC Bayern over the past few weeks, scoring seven goals in the last six competitive games. Nevertheless, the Cameroonian has not yet secured a new contract for the coming season. Rumors surrounding Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane continue to linger.
According to the latest reports, the English striker should continue to be Bayern Munich’s number one transfer target next summer. At least that’s what “Sky” reporter Florian Plettenberg reported in the football podcast “The German Soccer Podcast“, run by ex-pro Jan-Aage Fjörtoft.
According to the transfer expert, the German record champions had clearly signaled that they were interested in signing the 29-year-old.
It is “definitely only up to Harry Kane” how concrete the transfer will actually be in the summer of 2023. The Spurs captain is under contract with the Londoners until 2024.
According to media reports, Kane had so far turned down offers for an early extension of his working paper.
Kane as the only serious candidate for Bayern?
As the Bayern reporter explained, the possible transfer fee for Kane next year can also be further limited.
The Tottenham goalgetter is said to be available for 70 to 80 million euros if he does not extend his contract in the British capital beyond 2024. Previously, there was even speculation about a possible 100 million euro transfer fee.
Incidentally, according to the current status, Kane is said to be the only striker candidate in which FC Bayern actually has a serious interest. Should the transfer fail next year, the Munich team could continue to rely on the existing forces around Choupo-Moting and youngster Mathys Tel.
