England captain Harry Kane ended his record-breaking career with Tottenham yesterday, saying “it was time to leave” after signing a fouryear deal with Bayern Munich until 2027.

Kane moves to the Bundesliga giants chasing trophies after two dec - ades at his boyhood Premier League club without silverware. “I felt like it was the time to leave.

I didn’t want to go into the season with a lot of unresolved future talk,” Kane posted on social media.

“Obviously a lot of emotions going through me right now; sad to be leaving the club I’ve spent nearly 20 years of my life at, from 11-year-old boy to a 30-year-old man now.

“There’s been so many great moments and special memories, memories that I will cherish forever.”

After protracted negotiations between Bayern and Spurs’ chairman Daniel Levy a deal was finally struck on Thursday.

The reported fee for Kane is a Bundesliga record 100 million euros ($110 million, £ 8 6 million ) plus 10 million euros in bonuses.
