Overview
- Multiple reports led by Sport Bild and BILD say Kane will not trigger the clause that required notifying Bayern by the end of January 2026 to enable a summer move.
- His current contract runs to 2027, and both club and player are reported to be open to a one‑year extension to 2028 once the clause window closes.
- Kane has publicly indicated he is "fully all in" at Bayern and open to talks, emphasizing team trophies over a Premier League return or individual records.
- Barcelona, which had explored Kane as a potential successor to Robert Lewandowski, must reassess plans after being told he will not pursue the 2026 exit option.
- Goal.com and other outlets detail the clause mechanics and timing, with Bayern executives expected to initiate formal conversations early in 2026.
