FC Bayern has sealed a true mega-deal by extending Harry Kane ’s contract through 2029. The reigning Ballon d’Or winner will remain with the German record champions for the long term and will apparently become the Munich club’s new top earner. New information now reveals the actual financial scale of the contract. Furthermore, there appears to be clarity regarding a potential buyout clause.

It had already become known on Thursday that Kane’s new contract could bring him annual earnings of more than 25 million euros. Now, Sky reporter Florian Plettenberg is even reporting on a total package that, including bonus payments, is said to exceed the 30 million euro gross mark per year.

This would mean the 33-year-old would not only replace Jamal Musiala as Bayern’s highest-paid player. According to Sky, his new contract is also among the three most lucrative in European soccer. Only Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid) and Erling Haaland (Manchester City) are said to be on a similar level to Kane.

His total salary, including potential bonus payments, is said to exceed 30 million euros gross annually. With this move, the Munich club is setting new standards in its salary structure. Interestingly, according to Plettenberg, the bonus payments are relatively easy to achieve.

Internationally, too, the Englishman is now in an exceptional salary bracket. According to Sky, his contract ranks among the three highest-paying in Europe.

The British Daily Telegraph has also revealed intriguing details about Kane’s new Bayern contract. According to the newspaper’s sources, the fixed base salary amounts to the equivalent of around 25 million euros per year. The difference between that figure and the aforementioned more than 30 million euros is accounted for by additional bonus payments.

CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen had already publicly defended the financial terms of the contract extension. “It’s obviously a big contract for a great player—the figures are appropriate,” explained the Bayern boss.

Honorary President Uli Hoeneß also backed the decision, telling *kicker* that Kane is “worth every euro.”

No buyout clause: Bayern secures itself for the long term

In addition to the salary, one other contract detail is particularly noteworthy. As Sky reports, Kane’s new contract contains no buyout clause. Nor is there reportedly any additional option for an extension beyond the summer of 2029.

This answers an important question that had recently been the subject of speculation.

In recent weeks, there had been repeated reports of possible special provisions for the Englishman’s return to the Premier League. His former club, Tottenham Hotspur, was mentioned in particular. At one point, there was even speculation about a possible right of first refusal for the London club.

An early transfer would therefore not be possible via a fixed transfer fee but would, in principle, require an agreement between the parties involved. For FC Bayern, this means greater planning certainty.

However, securing the long-term commitment of their top scorer also comes at a price. With a reported annual salary of more than 30 million euros, including bonuses, Kane will be among the highest-paid players in European soccer going forward.

From a sporting perspective, the investment is certainly justified from Munich’s point of view. Since his transfer from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2023, the Englishman has scored an impressive 156 goals in 161 competitive matches and was most recently crowned with the Ballon d’Or.
