England captain Harry Kane signs new Bayern deal
'My heart was beating so fast' - Kane wins Ballon D'or
England captain and Ballon d'Or winner Harry Kane has signed a new contract with Bayern Munich that runs until 2029.
The 33-year-old striker was in the final 12 months of the four-year deal he signed after his £86m move from Tottenham in 2023.
He scored a club record 61 goals in 51 games last season as Bayern completed a league and cup double.
"I feel right at home at FC Bayern. I love the club, the fans and the city of Munich," said Kane.
"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's contract secures his future at Bayern until shortly before his 36th birthday and ensures he will remain with the club through Euro 2028 and to within a year of the 2030 World Cup.
The Leytonstone-born forward remains 47 goals short of equalling Alan Shearer's Premier League record of 260 and extending his deal in Germany decreases his chances of returning to break that mark.
By signing Kane to a new deal, Bayern have warded off any approach from Barcelona, who had a long-standing interest, while clubs in Saudi Arabia were also linked with the centre-forward.
