The England duo are two of the most-coveted stars in the Premier League.
Kane has bagged 17 league goals this season, while red-hot Rashford has netted 12.
Tottenham and Manchester United will be desperate to keep hold of their respective stars, but Bayern reckon they can prise them away.
Kane, 29, has 18 months remaining on his Spurs contract.
