Harry Kane has spoken about the possibility of finishing his career back in England and has discussed whether he would entertain playing for a different Premier League club than Tottenham.

Kane signed a new three-year deal with Bayern Munich last week after becoming the first English player in two and a half decades to win the Ballon d’Or.

The deal reportedly makes the striker the highest-paid player in Europe and has temporarily put an end to the speculation linking him with a return to the Premier League.

However, Spurs fans’ hope that he could return to the club one day has not been completely dashed yet.

This is because, according to reports, Tottenham retain a matching rights clause for Kane, which allows the North London club the right to match any future accepted bid for the England captain.

Tottenham legend Harry Kane admits he is no longer sure about England return

The former Spurs man is on 213 Premier League goals, just 47 away from Alan Shearer’s record tally of 260 strikes in the competition.

In an interview with talkSPORT, the 33-year-old has spoken about whether he harbours a desire to return to England to break that record before hanging up his boots.

Interestingly, Kane indicated that the conviction and desire to return to the Premier League is not as strong as it was three years ago.

Here is the transcript of the striker’s conversation with host Andy Goldstein:

Goldstein: “Do you see yourself coming back to the Premier League and chasing Shearer’s 260 goals?”

Kane: “I’ll be honest, I’m really not sure”

Goldstein: “H, come on! Give me something.”

Kane: “This is the honest answer. When I left to go, in my head for sure, I was thinking I was coming back. Not just for the record, I was thinking I wanted to achieve things in the Premier League that I haven’t achieved yet. But moving to Munich has opened my eyes. It is a big old world out there. I think it made people appreciate my game.

Goldstein: “If you do come back to the Premier League, will it be any club, or will it definitely be Spurs?”

Kane: “All the tough questions at the end.”

Goldstein: “Come on, mate, give me that one. Give me that one headline. Anyone or just Spurs?”

Kane: “Who knows? I can’t tell you honestly.”

Why Kane was never going to say he would only play for Spurs in the Premier League

Kane was never really going to gain anything by saying that he would not play for any other Premier League club apart from Tottenham, even if his top preference would be to return to his boyhood club.

If the striker says that and if Spurs are at the wrong end of the table in a few years or simply do not show interest, he will seem like a hypocrite for signing for someone else.

While Tottenham fans can be confident that Kane will not sign for Arsenal or Chelsea, the reality is that a lot of things have to align for the 33-year-old and for Spurs for a reunion to become realistic.
