As the speculation continues to run rife over a possible return to England for Harry Kane, Alan Shearer has explained why he does not want to see the former Tottenham man finish his career back in the Premier League.
While the England captain continues to break all sorts of goalscoring records at Bayern Munich, there have been non-stop rumours over his future since it was leaked that Kane’s contract at Bayern has an exit clause of £54m this summer.
Reports over the recent weeks have claimed that Tottenham have not ruled out the possibility of making a shock move to bring Harry Kane back to N17.
In fact, Tottenham have a first refusal on Kane, which was agreed upon when a deal was struck in 2023 between the North London club and Bayern Munich.
Alan Shearer makes honest admission about Kane
Spurs fans may be dreaming of seeing their record goal scorer back in a Tottenham shirt one day, although such a move appears unlikely for the time being.
However, Shearer confesses that he would love to see Kane ending his career in the Bundesliga as his Premier League goal record is in real danger if the 31-year-old returns to England.
When asked if he would like to see Kane return to England one day, the Newcastle legend told Optus Sport: “I was the one that was pushing him, telling him to go aboard – there’s no way that I’m going to invite him back because he’s a fantastic player and if he chooses to come back then there’s no doubt he’ll have a really good chance of breaking that record.
“So yeah, whenever I see him I’m like ‘yeah you stay in Germany mate, you’re smashing it over there scoring loads of goals, there’s no point in you coming back to the Premier League just yet’.”
Harry Kane will not be returning to Tottenham this summer
Whether or not a return to Tottenham Hotspur is on the cards for Harry Kane in the future, it is clear that he is not going to be on the move this summer.
Reports from Germany indicate Bayern are relaxed about Kane’s release clause as they do not expect the striker to push for a move this summer.
Last week, Kane himself admitted that he is extremely happy at Bayern and expressed his desire to compete for and win the biggest trophies over the coming years.
