Schweinsteiger speaks on Kane’s transfer

The World Cup winner in an interview with talksport, when asked about his former club’s potential of signing Kane said:

"Yes, 100 per cent. Bayern is looking for a striker, a forward, a proper striker like Robert Lewandowski. Eric Choupo-Moting is not good enough for Bayern Munich, he is more the ‘B’ solution.

"Bayern Munich, of course, would like to sign Harry Kane, but I also know that Bayern is not a club who will pay as much money as maybe the owner of Tottenham is asking for!

"So there will be one guy [at Bayern] who puts the fist on the table and says, 'No, we are not paying so much' but they’re looking for a striker, that’s for sure."

Asked if Kane would suit German football, Schweinsteiger said:

"He looks like a German almost with his blonde hair! Yeah definitely, I think it would be a great fit.

"Also for him, he has to ask himself, does he want to win a title in his life and his career as a football player? Like a championship or a Champions League.

"I know he’s a person who likes to have his family and friends around him, and Munich is the best place for it. You have a beautiful area around where you can live, where your family can grow up, it’s safe.

"Also the experience abroad, which I had when I went to Manchester United, helped me a lot and I grew as a person as well.

And of course, as a football player, he would have a very good team around him and a very good coach. So a lot of things are speaking for that."
