Ian Wright makes huge Harry Kane to Tottenham transfer prediction - 'for his legacy'

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has offered his thoughts on the possibility of Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane returning to Tottenham. The 32-year-old departed north London for Germany in the summer of 2023 for an initial £86 million, but he could be back at Spurs two years later for just a little over half that price.

A £54m exit clause can be activated if Kane makes it clear to Bayern in January that he wants a return to Tottenham. Kane won his first career trophy last season as Bayern won the Bundesliga with his boyhood club triumphing in the Europa League final just a few weeks later.

Kane was unable to win silverware during his time in the Tottenham senior squad despite scoring a remarkable 280 goals from 435 appearances. 213 of those strikes came in the Premier League which means Kane is 48 away from leapfrogging Alan Shearer to become the all-time top goal scorer in England's top flight.

With his future becoming a trending topic again, Wright has made a clear admission when giving his thoughts on whether or not Kane would return.

“Not just for the [Premier League] record but to finish off and see if he can be part of a team that wins something at Tottenham," he said on the . "Obviously they won the Europa [League].

“But for him and his legacy to be at Tottenham and maybe win something and the end of it and then go on to maybe get the goals. I think if Harry Kane comes back next season, he’ll break that record I think.”

Spurs boss Thomas Frank has also recently commented on a transfer for Kane with the Dane issuing a very honest verdict.

"He is an unbelievable player who did fantastic for Spurs and is doing fantastic for Bayern. Top player. I think there's a lot of Tottenham fans, including myself, who would like to see Kane back," he said in a recent press conference.

"Personally, I don't think he will do it right now if I'm honest. He'll probably stay in Bayern and continue performing well. He was top scorer last year, won the championship and he's doing fantastic now."

Public comments from Bayern have also come to light, with sporting director Max Eberl revealing what he believes to be Kane's stance. "I think that at his age he is still making huge progress as a personality on the pitch," he remarked.

"At Tottenham, of course, we all knew him from scoring goals but I think the way he's playing football in this team right now, not just scoring goals, but as a player, as a leader on the pitch and sacrificing himself for the team shows what I've been saying.

"He wants to win titles, that's what hunger is. He can do that with us, we want to do that with him.

"He's old enough to make his own decisions, whether he has a clause or not. If he says, 'I want to make a decision', as he showed at Tottenham, then he will make that decision. But of course, our wish is to have a very, very successful season with him and in the future."
