LONDON (AFP) – Tottenham Manager Thomas Frank said England captain Harry Kane is welcome to return to the north London club if he ever leaves Bayern Munich.

German publication Bild on Monday reported that Kane has a GBP56.7 million (USD76 million) release clause which could be activated at the end of this season.

It has also been reported that Tottenham have a buy-back option on the Bayern striker, sparking speculation that he could make an emotional return to north London.

Kane is Tottenham’s record scorer with 280 goals in all competitions during 14 years with the club after emerging from the youth academy.

He joined Bayern in 2023 and already has 98 goals in 103 games for the Bundesliga champions.

Asked if he would be interested in signing Kane, Tottenham boss Frank said, “I didn’t know there was a clause. He is an unbelievable player who did fantastic for Spurs and is doing fantastic for Bayern. Top player.

“I think there’s a lot of Tottenham fans, including myself, who would like to see Kane back.

“Personally, I don’t think he will do it right now if I’m honest. He’ll probably stay in Bayern and continue performing well.”
