Harry Kane has signed for Bayern Munich, after a prolonged negotiation with Tottenham.
<p>
Harry Kane has officially joined Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, after deciding it was the right time to leave Tottenham. </p>
<p>
Kane travelled to Germany on Friday night for a medical and Bayern confirmed on Saturday he had signed a deal until June 2027 and will wear the number nine shirt. </p>
<p>
"I'm very happy to be a part of FC Bayern now," Kane said. </p>
<p>
"Bayern is one of the biggest clubs in the world, and I've always said that I want to compete and prove myself at the highest level during my career. This club is defined by its winning mentality - it feels very good to be here." </p>
<p>
Shortly before the deal was official confirmed, Kane posted a message on his social media accounts in which he said: "I wanted to be the first to tell you Tottenham fans that I'll be leaving the club today. </p>
<p>
"Obviously a lot of emotions going through me right now; sad to be leaving the club I've spent nearly 20 years of my life at, from 11-year-old boy to a 30-year-old man now. </p>
<p>
"There's been so many great moments and special memories, memories that I will cherish forever. </p>
<p>
"I felt like it was the time to leave. I didn't want to go into the season with a lot of unresolved future talk. </p>
<p>
"I think it's important for the new manager and the players to concentrate on trying to get Tottenham back to around the top of the table and fighting for trophies so I wish Ange (Postecoglou) and all the boys all the very best of luck. </p>
<p>
"I'll be watching from a fan point of view now and really hope the team can be successful." </p>
<p>
Postecoglou had revealed on Friday that Kane's move was "imminent" after a breakthrough in negotiations between the clubs was reached on Wednesday night. </p>
<p>
It left the ball in Kane's court and he decided on Thursday to leave his boyhood club for Bayern, who will reportedly pay an initial £100m with add-ons potentially taking the deal up to an overall fee of £120m. </p>
