  • Kane is entering the final year of his contract with the North London club

Bayern Munich could face an uphill task to sign Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur as the Bundesliga club push to sign a marquee centre forward this summer.

The Bundesliga champions have had two bids submitted for the 29-year-old England captain, but Tottenham rejected both bids as they claim they did not match their valuation of the player.

According to Sportskeeda, Super-agent Pini Zahavi has now explained why it could be tough for Bayern Munich to sign Kane this summer.

"I have known Daniel Levy for around 25 years. From my many years of experience and our friendship, I can say: yes, it's not always easy with him. [But] if Bayern know how to deal with him, they can find a solution."

Bayern Munich are preparing to send a third bid for Kane after having their first two bids worth €70m plus add-ons and €80m plus add-ons rejected by Tottenham.

Kane won’t push for Tottenham exit

Meanwhile, Harry Kane does not intend to push to leave Tottenham this summer, even if the club continues to turn down bids for him from Bayern Munich, Evening Standard reports.

The England forward, who is in the final year of his six-year deal, returned to Spurs training on Wednesday and has had cordial meetings with new head coach Ange Postecoglou since then.

Kane is now keeping an open mind on his future and would consider leaving Tottenham this summer, leaving on a free transfer in a year's time, or signing a new deal.

Tottenham reject Bayern second bid

Earlier, Sports Brief reported Bayern Munich’s bid to sign Harry Kane this summer from Tottenham Hotspur is proving more difficult than they may have anticipated.

Bayern had an offer of €60m plus add-ons to sign Kane rejected by Tottenham last month. Now the Bundesliga champions have returned with an improved deal.

The Bavarians have made an improved offer of €80m for the 29-year-old forward as they are keen to bring the English forward to the Allianz Arena this summer.
