Bayern Munich’s chances of signing Harry Kane have been boosted as the German club consider handing Tottenham one of their prized assets in return.

The Bundesliga giants are pushing ahead with plans to sign Kane this summer, although the transfer fee remains a sticking point in the deal.

Bayern Munich’s top executives are expected to meet with Daniel Levy next week to discuss a deal for Kane. PSG also hold an interest in Kane, although the forward would seemingly prefer a move to Bayern.

As the two clubs continue to haggle over a transfer fee, Bayern could be willing to sweeten the deal by including Mathys Tel.

According to The Telegraph, Bayern could use Tottenham’s interest in Tel as a way to land a deal for Kane. Tottenham have already made enquiries over Tel this summer and Bayern could consider using him as part of the deal.

It remains to be seen whether Bayern would sanction a loan or permanent sale for Tel, but this is an option currently being discussed.

“We will definitely discuss that – if something changes – very late in the window,” Tuchel told reporters when asked about Tel’s future.

The 18-year-old is a hotly-tipped prospect in the Bundesliga. He managed to score five league goals in just 399 minutes for the German champions last season.

Losing Kane would be a hammer blow for Spurs, but that blow would be softened significantly if they manage to land a deal for Tel.

Ange Postecoglou should plan for life without Kane

There’s no doubt that Postecoglou has been thrown into a tough situation this summer. Rebuilding the squad while potentially losing Kane was never going to be easy.

As Kane only has one year left to run on his contract, he will be able to leave the club for free next year if he isn’t sold this summer. With this being the case, Postecoglou would be best to plan his long-term vision without the 30-year-old.

Christian Falk recently suggested that Kane has already played his last game for Spurs as Bayern look to ramp up their interest.

“Bayern Munich are working hard on the transfer of Harry Kane,” Falk told CaughtOffside. “The club are still very positive about the deal and are hopeful the Englishman played his last match for Tottenham against LC Sailors.

“They would like to complete the deal before Spurs’ next match against Shakhtar Donetsk on 6 August in London.”

The next week or so is likely to be crucial in deciding Kane’s future. With Bayern’s talks set to ramp up, it should be an interesting few days for Tottenham and Kane.
