Tottenham Hotspur and England captain Harry Kane has reportedly been visited by Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel with the aim to convince him to join the Bundesliga champions in summer.
Sport Bild weekly said in its latest edition on Wednesday that Tuchel and then Bayern board member for sport Hasan Salihamidzic met with the striker Kane in mid-May at his house in London.
The report said that Kane was very impressed about the exchange with Tuchel and had signalled his intention to come to Munich and win the Champions League with them.
Kane, who is reportedly also a Manchester United target, has a contract at Spurs until 2024.
Bayern are reportedly preparing a second offer for Kane after seeing a first one said to be in the range of Euro70 million ($76.3 million) rejected.
The 11-time reigning German champions are looking for a new striker after their contracted forwards failed to fill the void last season following Robert Lewandowski’s departure for Barcelona.
Among them is Senegal captain Sadio Mane who reportedly is attracting interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia.
The Al-Ahli club is now said to be among them, the side where Mane’s former Liverpool team-mate moved to on Tuesday.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr are said to have been eyeing Mane for weeks.
Mane had a difficult first season in Munich which included a long-term injury over which he missed the World Cup. He was also involved in a dressing room altercation with fellow forward Leroy Sane.
Mane said recently he plans to return to Munich where he is contracted until 2025 but Tuchel reportedly isn’t considering him an important player.
