Bayern have identified Kane as their top target during this summer’s transfer window but were .

Tottenham are but as talks over a new contract have stalled, chairman Daniel Levy has opened the door to his departure.

say Bayern Munich have now reached an agreement with Tottenham to sign the England star, who is closing in on Alan Shearer’s all-time Premier League goals record.

But Kane must still decide whether to end his 19-year association with Spurs or stay put and look to help Tottenham win silverware under new manager Ange Postecoglou.

The 30-year-old is said to be enjoying life under the former Celtic manager and focused on the new Premier League season, which starts this weekend.

Kane reportedly wanted his future resolved before Tottenham’s opening fixture against Brentford on Sunday.

Bayern Munich won a 11th successive Bundesliga title last season and reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League before losing 4-1 on aggregate to eventual winners Manchester City.

Tottenham, meanwhile, only finished eighth in the Premier League last term, 11 points outside the top-four places and 29 points adrift of champions Man City.

With 280 goals for Tottenham, Kane is already the north London club’s all-time record goalscorer and is just 47 short of Shearer’s all-time tally in the Premier League.

‘Everyone knows he is in the last year [of his contract], Bayern Munich are making these big bids, Kane hasn’t said ‘I don’t want to go there’ so they must have spoken to him behind the scenes to say, ‘if we bid for you, will you come?’

‘I would expect that deal to happen before the start of the season, otherwise Harry would have squashed it from his side, and I don’t understand why that hasn’t happened.’

As well as breaking records at club level, Kane – who has been repeatedly linked with a move to Manchester United – is already England’s all-time record scorer with 58 goals in 84 games.
