Kane signs new Bayern Munich contract to become highest-paid player in Europe

England striker Harry Kane has signed a two-year extension at Bayern Munich, keeping the Ballon d’Or winner at the club until 2029.

Kane is entering the final six months of the four-year deal he signed when he joined Bayern Munich from Tottenham in 2023.

The new contract is the most lucrative deal in Bayern Munich history, making him the highest-paid player in Europe by salary.

According to reports, Kane’s new salary is at least €25 million gross per year.

“Ballon d’Or winner Harry Kane has signed a new contract with FC Bayern until 30 June 2029,” Bayern said in a statement on Thursday.

Kane said: “I feel right at home at FC Bayern. I love the club, the fans and the city of Munich. We have a fantastic team and, in Vincent Kompany, a fantastic manager. It makes me very proud to be part of this club.

“My whole family is very happy here. I was keen to stay. I’m now looking forward to the future and I want to win many more titles with this great club.”
