If Bayern Munich come calling for Harry Kane this summer, he should go to win some trophies, says former Liverpool star

FORMER Liverpool and Tottenham star Danny Murphy has called on Harry Kane to quit Spurs this summer for Bayern Munich.

The striker has been one of the most prolific in Europe for many years but is yet to win a trophy in his senior career.

Several reports have linked him with a move to the Allianz Arena but Kane has stayed put - and is now closing in on the all-time outright Spurs scoring record.

But Murphy believes he must jump ship at the end of the season if given the chance.

The pundit told the : "If Bayern Munich come calling for Harry Kane this summer, he should go. It would be hugely sad if a player of his quality finished without winning a trophy. It’s something he himself would regret after retirement.

"When I reflect on my career, the best memories are those at Liverpool winning something; the joy at the final whistle, celebrating with team-mates and supporters, the parties and parades afterwards.

"That is what you work so hard for and unfortunately Spurs are no nearer giving Kane what he deserves as a world-class striker.

"He turns 30 this summer, it’s getting to that now-or-never stage but it shows how good his form is that one of the biggest clubs in Europe are still interested."

Kane has been in fantastic form this season and finds himself only behind Erling Haaland in the Premier League scoring charts.

The England international has found the net 16 times compared to Haaland's 25 goals.

And it is not only Bayern who are believed to want him with reports signalling that Manchester United may also weigh up a summer move.

However Murphy believes Germany is the best option for the Spurs man.

He added: "I’m sure Kane would get other offers. Manchester United have been mentioned but he hasn’t got time to be part of a team that is building.

"If he was going to leave Spurs, it would be primarily to win trophies from the get-go which would make Bayern his best option."

Kane has regularly hit 20 goals or more since breaking on to the scene in the 2014-15 season.

And with his contract up at the end of next season, chairman Daniel Levy and the Spurs hierarchy will be desperate to not lose him for free.

Kane had previously appeared to be heading towards the exit door in the summer of 2021 as a dispute broke out over a "gentleman's agreement" he had with the club.

But he stayed put and today could pass Greave's goal record if he scores against Manchester City.
