Bayern Munich are laying groundwork for Harry Kane's potential exit. According to 442 and teamTalk, the German giants see Erling Haaland as a possible future replacement for the England striker.
Harry Kane is expected to sign a new contract with the club.
The current Bayern striker is reportedly close to finalising an extension until either 2029 or 2030, with an announcement likely to come as early as October.
This means Kane will remain the main man for the Bavarians in the coming years.
Haaland is a long-term target for Bayern
The Bayern hierarchy have a keen interest in bringing Erling Haaland to Bavaria.
The Norwegian forward, currently plying his trade at Manchester City, is under contract until 2034. Therefore, any immediate transfer to Munich seems unlikely.
However, Bayern are prepared to monitor the situation and remain hopeful of seizing the opportunity should Haaland become available at a suitable time.
Possible transfer in a few years
The ideal scenario for Bayern would involve pursuing Haaland in three to four years. By that time, Harry Kane may be nearing the end of his long-term deal, and the club could look to embark on a new chapter.
At this stage, it's purely a strategic plan. With Haaland's current contract at Manchester City, there are no guarantees that the Norwegian will find himself on the transfer market at any point.
For now, Bayern will continue to rely on Harry Kane, while the potential acquisition of Haaland remains a long-term ambition.
