Tottenham have disputed claims that Harry Kane has been denied permission to go to Germany, with the striker currently expected to complete his move to Bayern Munich.
Kane is likely to join Bayern Munich after agreeing to terms with the German champions. On Friday morning, it was claimed that Tottenham had denied the England striker the authorization he needed to leave the country to undertake his medical. According to Sky Sports News, Tottenham has rejected this, stating that Kane is free to fly to Germany and that the trade is still on track.
It appears that the long transfer saga is finally finished. According to Sky in Germany, Kane is hoping to complete the transfer so that he may make his debut for Bayern against RB Leipzig in the DFL-Supercup on Saturday evening. Meanwhile, The Athletic reports that Kane will be given Robert Lewandowski’s old No.9 shirt, which the Polish legend gave up when he joined Barcelona a year ago.
If the move is completed in time, the 30-year-old will be aiming to feature in Bayern’s Super Cup match against Leipzig this weekend. He’ll then concentrate on Bayern’s Bundesliga campaign, and will surely want to assist the Bavarians advance in the Champions League, which was one of the key reasons for his move to Germany.
