Kane follows Ballon d’Or win with new Bayern contract
Kane follows Ballon d’Or win with new Bayern contract

Ballon d'Or winner Harry Kane has signed a new contract with Bayern Munich, committing his future to the Bundesliga giants until 2029.

Kane, who arrived in Bavaria from Tottenham in 2023, was approaching the final six months of his previous deal.

There had been murmurs that Barcelona could make a move for the England captain, while he has also talked up the prospect of playing in MLS later in his career.

But any Stateside adventure will have to wait, with Kane's new deal reportedly making him the highest-paid player in Europe, judged by annual salary.

Kane told Bayern's website: "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."

Kane has helped Bayern win back-to-back Bundesliga titles under Kompany, also lifting the DFB-Pokal and the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup trophies, the latter on two occasions.

Kane has a truly remarkable goalscoring record since his move to Germany, netting 156 times in just 161 appearances for the club.

He is already sixth in Bayern's all-time scoring charts, only behind Gerd Muller (565), Robert Lewandowski (344), Thomas Muller (250), Rainer Ohlhauser (229) and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge (217).

That includes 64 goals across all competitions for Bayern in 2025-26, as he netted 73 times for club and country during the voting period for the Ballon d'Or.

The only other instance of a player from Europe's top five leagues scoring 70+ goals in a single campaign came in 2011-12, when Lionel Messi netted 82 en route to one of his eight Ballon d'Or triumphs.

Kane became the fifth English player to win football's most prestigious individual award and the first in 25 years, after Stanley Matthews (1956), Bobby Charlton (1966), Kevin Keegan (1978 and 1979) and Michael Owen (2001).

His Ballon d'Or triumph was the first by a Bayern player since Rummenigge in 1981, and the first by any Bundesliga player since Borussia Dortmund's Matthias Sammer in 1996.

Bayern's chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen said of Kane's new deal: "This is fantastic news for us, for our fans and for the Bundesliga. 

"The Ballon d'Or winner is staying at Bayern Munich! Since joining us in 2023, he has achieved extraordinary things with his goals, his influence on the game and as a role model both on and off the pitch. 

"He has long since made FC Bayern his home, has continued to develop with us and crowned that development with the Ballon d'Or. His contract extension is a commitment to FC Bayern and to a story that is far from over."

Kane was not on target for Bayern in the Champions League on Tuesday, though they still ran out 2-0 winners over Atletico Madrid. They return to Bundesliga action on Saturday, away to Mainz.
