Harry Kane admits that he wants to play football at the highest level for another seven or eight years, following in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski. The 30-year-old joined Bayern Munich from Tottenham Hotspur to end his Premier League career. If all performance-related strings are met, the deal could end up being worth £95 million.
Kane has been close to Alan Shearer's Premier League scoring record. He scored 213 goals for Tottenham Hotspur since breaking into the first team at the end of the 2013/14 season, but his desire to win trophies has not been realised in north London. In an extensive interview with German media outlet Bild, Kane has now made public what persuaded him to move to Bayern, also detailing his desire to maintain a top level in the coming years, which could open the door to a return to the Premier League.
Asked why he chose to join Bayern Munich, Kane admitted: "I've always dreamed of playing at the highest level in Europe, and Bayern Munich is one such club. They have had great success over the last few years and are a team full of ambition and strength. I hope to be able to challenge myself here and compete with the best players in the world. ”
Kane also mentioned his desire to stay at the top level. "I've always been a very demanding person for myself," he says. I hope to continue to improve and become a better player in the coming years. Players like Ronaldo, Messi, Benzema and Lewandowski, who are still able to perform well beyond the age of 30, is what I want to pursue. ”
Kane's move has also sparked talk of a return to the Premier League. Premier League teams have been relatively weak on the European stage over the past few years, and Kane's move to Bayern Munich could shed light on Premier League teams regaining glory in Europe. Kane said: "I hope my move will inspire Premier League teams and convince them that they can succeed in Europe. The Premier League is one of the most competitive leagues in the world and I am confident it will return to the top. ”
For Kane personally, the move marks the end of his Premier League career and the beginning of a new chapter for him. Together with his teammates at Bayern Munich, he will strive for more honours and leave a more glorious page in his football career.
Overall, Harry Kane is adamant about his desire to remain at the top level for years to come and wants to follow in the footsteps of football's greats. His arrival at Bayern Munich also offers hope for the return of the Premier League, raising expectations for greater breakthroughs for Premier League teams in Europe. As Kane embarks on a new journey, football fans will continue to keep an eye on his performances and look forward to his success and glory at Bayern Munich.
