Bayern Munich CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen is not interested in confirming the numbers behind Harry Kane’s reported contract extension, but he made one thing abundantly clear: Bayern believes its superstar striker is worth every penny.

Asked about reports that Kane’s new deal makes him the highest-paid player in Europe based on base salary, Dreesen declined to disclose any financial details but described the agreement as a major contract for a major player.

Dreesen also emphasized that Kane has more than justified Bayern’s investment since arriving in Munich three years ago, with the club expecting plenty more to come.

“Of course we wouldn’t reveal any figures. That’s always a sensitive subject, as you know. I heard today that this has already been reported somewhere. For us, this is a major contract for a major player. And it’s a fair one. Harry has given us an incredible amount of joy over the past three years and has shown that, even over these last three years, he has been worth every penny. We see things the same way going forward. We’re therefore very optimistic, and we still have a lot we want to achieve together. That’s why we said that this story hasn’t been fully written yet. And who knows what will happen in 2029,” Dreesen said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).

Kane’s future beyond 2029 might not be something Bayern is ready to discuss publicly, but Dreesen certainly left the door open.

After everything Kane has accomplished in Munich, paying him like one of the best players in the world hardly seems controversial. Bayern found its world-class striker, and neither side appears particularly interested in ending this relationship anytime soon.
