Harry Kane bids emotional farewell to Tottenham fans as he completes stunning £104m Bayern Munich transfer

HARRY KANE has bid an emotional farewell to Tottenham after sealing his dream £104million Bayern Munich transfer.

The England captain, 30, has been officially unveiled by the German champions and is set to make his debut TODAY.

The striker successfully completed his medical yesterday and has penned a £415,000-a-week four-year contract.

And just moments before Bayern officially announced his arrival, he broke his silence after ending his 19-year stay in North London.

In an emotional Instagram video, he said: “Hi everyone. I wanted to be the first to tell you Tottenham fans that I'll be leaving the club today.

“Obviously [there are] a lot of emotions going through me right now. Sad to be leaving the club I've spent nearly 20 years of my life at. 

“From an 11-year-old boy to a 30-year-old man now, there's been so many great moments and special memories. Memories that I'll cherish forever.

“So this is a thank you to all my teammates over the years. My coaches, all the managers, every single staff member to do with the club from the kit man to the chefs, everyone involved.”

Kane continued: “Obviously I've built special relationships with a lot of people.

“And most importantly, I want to say thank you to the fans. From the moment I've been playing I've been one of your own and I've given everything that I possibly could've just to make you proud and give you as many special moments and memories that will hopefully last forever.”

The clip was accompanied with a caption that read: “Hard to put into words how to say goodbye to a club and fans who have done so much for me in my career.

“You will always be in my heart. Thank you Tottenham, thank you Tottenham fans.”

Kane then posted snaps of him holding his new No.9 shirt on Twitter and wrote: “Been an incredible welcome for me and my family in Munich in the last 24 hours!

“Buzzing to have signed for such a massive club with an incredible history, can't wait to get started! #miasanmia.”

After being officially unveiled, he then told the club’s website: “I’m very happy to be a part of FC Bayern now.

“Bayern is one of the biggest clubs in the world, and I’ve always said that I want to compete and prove myself at the highest level during my career.

“This club is defined by its winning mentality - it feels very good to be here.”

Bayern announced the signing with a James Bond-style video on social media.

Kane enters a cinema donning a tux in the clip and makes his way through the lobby and purchases a ticket.

He then locates the No.9 seat before turning to the camera to say “action” as the film - which is a movie titled “Kane” - starts.

Kane is Spurs' all-time top scorer with 280 goals in 435 appearances and he was just 47 goals short of Alan Shearer's record Premier League tally of 260.

He landed in Germany yesterday to undergo his medical after finally getting the green light and overcoming a number of flight issues.

But Bayern have now finally got their man and registered him in time to make his bow this afternoon.

Thomas Tuchel's side take on cup winners RB Leipzig at the Allianz Arena in their first match of the season as the two clubs battle for the German Super Cup.

And that could mean that the star finally gets his hands on a trophy on the very first day of him not being a Tottenham player.

Tottenham finally accepted Bayern Munich's fourth bid for Kane this week after they had knocked back three offers and stood firm on their £100m valuation.

Bayern president Herbert Hainer said: “Welcome to Munich, Harry Kane! We’re very happy about this top-quality new arrival.

“The transfer required tenacity, bite and perseverance - my compliments to all those involved in these negotiations at FC Bayern, led by our CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen.

“Harry Kane will not only strengthen FC Bayern, but also be a real asset to the entire Bundesliga.”

And Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen added: “It’s been a long process, but now we’re all the happier that Harry Kane will be wearing the Bayern Munich shirt with immediate effect.

“Harry Kane was our absolute dream player right from the start. He is a perfect fit for us and the club's DNA in terms of both football and character.

“World-class centre forwards have always been an important factor when FC Bayern has celebrated its greatest triumphs, and we’re convinced that Harry Kane will continue this success story.

“Our fans can look forward to one of the best goalscorers of our time.”

Bayern will kick-off their Bundesliga campaign, where they will be looking to secure a 12th-straight title, with a trip to Werder Bremen on Friday.
