Kane’s Bayern extension hits final hurdle as two key clauses emerge

Harry Kane's future at Bayern Munich appears increasingly secure, but the England captain is reportedly pushing for two important clauses before putting pen to paper on a new deal.After a sensational season in Bavaria and a bronze medal at the recently concluded World Cup, the 33-year-old is widely expected to be crowned the world's best individual player when the Ballon d'Or is awarded in London on October 26.##LINKED_NEWS_69310##There had been suggestions that Kane could agree a contract extension with the German champions before that ceremony. That has not happened yet, although there is no indication that negotiations have run into serious trouble.Both the Englishman and Bayern representatives have repeatedly stressed that an extension is simply a matter of time. The delay, however, appears to be down to the final details – and two clauses that Kane reportedly wants included in the new agreement.The first concerns an exit clause, with Bayern and the player still needing to agree on the exact figure. The second could prove even more significant for Kane's long-term future.##EDITORS_CHOICE##According to reports, the striker wants Tottenham to have the right to match any offer Bayern accept for him should the Bundesliga champions decide to sell him at some point.In simple terms, if Bayern were to agree to a transfer with, say, Barcelona, Tottenham would be able to match Barcelona's bid and immediately gain priority in the race for Kane.Bayern would then have no say over which of the two clubs the striker joins. The value of Kane's proposed release clause has not yet been revealed.Whatever the final agreement looks like, Bayern have little reason to question the value of keeping him. Kane scored 61 goals in 51 appearances for the club last season, while his tally rose to 73 when his England goals are included.21.45: (1.30) Spain (5.50) Croatia (10.0)Since arriving at Allianz Arena, he has been even more extraordinary: 152 goals and 34 assists in 154 appearances. Under the terms of the proposed new contract, Kane is expected to earn around €25 million gross per season, including bonuses. The deal may therefore be close. But before Kane signs, two clauses could determine just how much control he retains over where his remarkable Bayern story eventually ends.
