Fabrizio Romano: Breaks down deal between Bayern and Tottenham as they reach agreement
With just three days to go until Tottenham open their 2023/24 Premier League season with a fixture against Brentford, Harry Kane’s situation remains up in the air.
It’s not the nicest situation for the north Londoners to be in, but a lot of it has to do with Daniel Levy’s insistence on either receiving what he thinks is fair value for his talisman or keeping him at the club in the hopes that he’ll sign a new contract in the following 12 months.
The Spurs chairman isn’t renowned for participating in poker games with such big stakes, but he’s truly risking everything on this one.
Bayern Munich doesn’t currently seem to be out of the running, and as Fabrizio Romano points out, there are two key criteria to take into account when determining whether the transaction can be completed or not.

Kane has remained silent thus far, seemingly preferring not to comment at all.
That’s possibly the most rational course of action for the center-forward at this time, especially since statements might be misinterpreted or distorted.
What would be the point of keeping the headline writers busy on the eve of an important fixture when he will have enough to say about his future in due course?
Given the timetable Kane himself has set for any deal to close, everyone will know how this one ends in a few days—at least for this summer.
