- Manning joked that the Giants would welcome Kane as their kicker and invited him to consider the NFL.
- The suggestion aligns with Kane’s spring remarks that an NFL role is a post‑career possibility he might explore near retirement.
- Bayern coach Vincent Kompany and sporting director Max Eberl praised Kane’s leadership and form and emphasized the club’s intention to keep winning with him.
- Kane has 13 goals in seven competitive games this season, and reports of an exit clause in his 2027 contract remain unconfirmed as Bayern focus on retaining him long term.
