At some point, Harry Kane will leave Bayern Munich.
Many are targeting 2026 as the time, while others think he will see out his deal and leave in 2027. However, Real Madrid is hoping that it can convince Kane to leave Bayern Munich in 2025:
Real Madrid are reportedly eyeing a potential move for Bayern Munich’s star forward, Harry Kane, according to a recent update from Fichajes. The English striker, who joined the Bundesliga champions last season, has proven that his goal-scoring prowess remains unmatched. With 20 goals and 9 assists in just 17 matches across all competitions, Kane has been instrumental in leading Bayern’s attack with extraordinary performances.
Despite his remarkable start in Germany, Kane’s name is once again being linked with Real Madrid. The Spanish giants are in need of a reliable striker who can fill the void left by Karim Benzema, and Kane appears to be an ideal candidate for this role. At 31 years old, Kane is in peak form, combining clinical finishing with exceptional playmaking abilities—a rare combination that makes him stand out as one of the most complete forwards in the game today.
Kane’s immediate impact at Bayern has been felt in both domestic and European competitions. However, his admiration for Spanish football and interest in Real Madrid have reignited discussions about a potential transfer. His ability to perform in high-pressure games and adapt to different systems adds to his appeal for a club like Real Madrid, which prioritises players who can make a difference in crucial moments.
Real Madrid have struggled to find a consistent striker since Benzema’s departure, and Kane’s experience and versatility could be the solution they need. While the move is an exciting prospect, it is also fraught with challenges.
Bayern Munich consider Kane a vital part of their future, and any potential transfer would come with a significant financial outlay. However, Real Madrid are known for their determination to secure top talent, and they have a history of breaking records to bring in world-class players.
Kane was linked to Real Madrid before his eventual move to Bayern Munich, but barring some kind of miraculous change of direction for his career, it seems like the striker will be headed home to England for his next club.
Who will it be? When will it be? That is all open at the moment. For now, though, Bayern Munich fans should enjoy what the Englishman is bringing to the table in terms of production.
Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres might be the most sought after player in Europe at the moment — and Manchester United might be poised to take a serious run at him.
If the Red Devils fail, RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Šeško could be Plan B:
Manchester United will provide “big competition” in the race to sign Sporting CP’s Viktor Gyökeres next summer, reports Christian Falk. The Sweden international has been on fire this season, scoring 16 goals in 11 league games to date. Falk reports that United hold a key advantage over other clubs who wish to sign Gyökeres, as incoming manager Rúben Amorim helped the 26-year-old become the most in-demand striker in Europe at Sporting. The Red Devils also retain an interest in RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Šeško, who is expected to change clubs next summer.
Bayern Munich likely knew that it was going to be in for a frustrating match and also probably knew that it would have to endure a deep-sitting FC Augsburg side if it wanted to somehow try to pull out a victory.

Just a year ago, FC Barcelona center-back Ronald Araújo was very closely linked to Bayern Munich.
Now, talks over an extension with Barca seem to have hit a roadblock:
Talks between Barcelona and the representatives of centre-back Ronald Araújo regarding a new deal have stalled, reports Marca. Araújo, 25, will enter the final year of his contract next summer, and despite the club having sent him an official offer to extend his stay, it is reported that the Uruguay international is yet to respond. The LaLiga side are also hopeful of reaching an agreement over a new contract with midfielder Frenkie de Jong.
Real Madrid might not want to risk FC Barcelona getting the upper hand on a pursuit of Bayer Leverkusen center-back Jonathan Tah during the 2025 summer transfer window.
To prevent Barca from gaining an edge, Real Madrid could look at January as an opportunity to get Tah:
Real Madrid are looking at Bayer Leverkusen’s Jonathan Tah as a potential January signings to help solve their defensive injury crisis, AS reports. Los Blancos were dealt another major blow at the weekend as centre-back Éder Militão is set to join right-back Dani Carvajal on the sidelines for the rest of the season with an ACL injury. According to TEAMtalk, Tottenham Hotspur’s Cristian Romero and Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite are two other names in the frame.
Bayern Munich is back in action and fans are excited about watching the squad come back together on the pitch.
Off the field, though, things might even be more hot with some of the rumors going on. Let’s talk about some of the biggest stories on this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works — Weekend Warm-up Show:
- Joshua Kimmich is representing himself and might be bullying Bayern Munich’s more experienced front office.

- Bayern Munich’s midfield is banged up, Leon Goretzka might start, and some people are not going to like it. Why has Goretzka become such a lightning rod for fans?
Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold might really be thinking about a move to Real Madrid:
Trent Alexander-Arnold could agree a deal to leave Liverpool and join Real Madrid within a matter of weeks, reports Football Insider. The Spanish side are said to be “making advances” to lure the versatile 26-year-old from Anfield, and Alexander-Arnold is free to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with the LaLiga giants from Jan. 1. Liverpool are said to be doing everything they can to persuade the homegrown star to stay, along with teammates Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah.
