Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) has also emerged as a hot topic in the English Premier League (EPL).
England's 'Telegraph' set the fire. Reporter Matt Law said on the 26th (Korean time) 'Cain is already rumored to be considering returning to England after the 2026 World Cup. 'There is a buyout clause in the contract with Bayern Munich, where the amount is lowered every year, and industry insiders believe Bayern could be in talks again next summer.'
He was referring to the possibility of Kane returning to England. Kane was Tottenham 'One Club Man' from the 2022-2023 season. The route was changed in August 2023. He moved to Germany's prestigious Bayern team to realize his dream of winning the championship.
He won the top of the Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season and enjoyed the joy of the top for the first time. As he has reached the championship, the possibility of Kane, who is from England, returning to the EPL is always open. When asked about the possibility of returning to the EPL, Kane also answers "Someday".
There is also solid motivation. This is the record for the most goals scored in EPL history. Kane has scored 213 goals for Tottenham, ranking second over Wayne Rooney (208 goals). On top of him is Shearer, who has scored 260 goals. A further 48 goals will open up a new chapter. It is possible to play for at least two more seasons in the EPL. Kane will be 33 next July.

In January 2026, a new 'Buyout' will be launched. The amount is reported to be 54 million pounds (about 99.4 billion won). However, Matt Law revealed that Manchester United, not his former team Tottenham, is likely to be Kane's next destination.
Tottenham also had a fire at the top of their feet. England's 『Football London" reported on the 30th that the red alert was raised after it was claimed that Kane had planned to return to the Premier League. Because we have to catch Kane again.
And when asked if Tottenham are likely to recruit Kane again, it is most likely that 'YES (yes)'. He has scored 85 goals in 96 appearances for Bayern, and there is no sign that his momentum will be dampened at all.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy made headlines when he revealed that he holds the right to buy back after Kane's transfer. However, it is not a mandatory provision. First of all, they only have the right to negotiate. If Kane doesn't agree, it's just a 'empty check'.
Coincidentally, last season's Tottenham, which Kane shook off 'winning', also enjoyed the top joy when he ascended the throne in the Europa League. It has been 17 years since he won the League Cup in the 2007-2008 season. The European tournament was the first championship in 41 years since the 1983-1984 season.

Meanwhile, the future of Kane's best friend Son Heung-min is also changing. Son Heung-min's contract with Tottenham was scheduled to expire at the end of last season. Tottenham activated a one-year extension earlier this year.
He is at the crossroads of transfer and stay. Son Heung-min is reportedly negotiating a transfer with LA FC of the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS). Coach Thomas Frank, who took the helm of Tottenham, avoided a definite answer at a press conference ahead of the first pre-season game against Reading and gave an ambiguous answer to Son Heung-min's future, saying, `See you in 5-6 weeks.' It was interpreted as a statement with a breakup in mind.
The atmosphere has changed again. Prior to his Asian tour, Frank appeared on the British soccer YouTube channel Man in Blazers, saying, "Son Heung-min's achievements for this team are amazing. He is a great player who has dedicated himself to Tottenham." He continued "He is a player with a good mindset, sincerity and leadership. You can play a very good role in this team in the new season. That's why I have high expectations."
Tottenham will play a friendly match against Arsenal at the Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong on the 31st. At a press conference held in Hong Kong on the 29th, Frank said, `Son Heung-min is here now, so I'm really happy. He is also doing well in training. He has played in the last two friendlies and is also included in the squad. What I pay attention to is that he is a Tottenham player."

On how to use Son Heung-min "Everyone knows that Son Heung-min has been one of Tottenham's best players for the past 10 years. He was very successful as a left winger and showed great performance as a No. 9 striker"That's why it's important to recruit players who can play multiple positions. It is also important to have the best players available on the field. Son's strength is that he can always score goals. In such a situation, it is important how to use him.'
There were also reports of a one-year contract extension. England's 'TeamTalk' reported that Tottenham is preparing a contract extension for Son Heung-min while Son Heung-min has emerged as a major target for Inter Miami and LA FC.'Tottenham is aware of the growing interest in Son Heung-min and plans to extend the contract by one year to secure the transfer fee while protecting his value.
Son's future is expected to become clearer after the Asian tour. However, if he renews his contract, there will be a door for him to reunite with Kane.
If 'Sonke combination' is restarted, the milestone may also be extended. Son scored 47 goals with Kane. It is by far the number one offensive union in EPL history. You can also step on a 50-goal archway.
Son Heung-min holds the key regardless of whether he stays or leaves. Whether it's Tottenham or Manchester United, Kane also has a moment of choice approaching.
