> The England captain, with 156 goals in 161 Bayern games, has signed what German media call the richest contract in the club's history.

**Harry Kane has signed a new contract with Bayern Munich that runs to June 2029**, the Bundesliga club announced on Thursday, 5 November, ending months of talk about a return to the Premier League. The deal comes a week after the 33-year-old England captain [won the Ballon d'Or](/news/sports/ballon-dor-2026-harry-kane-wins-first-england-winner-since-michael-owen-putellas), the first Englishman to do so since Michael Owen in 2001.

"I feel right at home at FC Bayern," Kane said in the club's statement, [Reuters reported via Al Jazeera](https://www.aljazeera.com/sports/2026/11/5/englands-harry-kane-extends-bayern-munich-contract-until-2029). "I love the club, the fans and the city of Munich... I was keen to stay."

## Kane at Bayern in numbers

- **Joined:** 2023, from Tottenham Hotspur
- **Goals:** 156 in 161 appearances in all competitions
- **Trophies:** two Bundesliga titles, the German Cup and two German Super Cups
- **Individual:** Bundesliga top scorer in every season he has played, two European Golden Shoes, Germany's Footballer of the Year 2026 and the 2026 Ballon d'Or

That is almost a goal a game for three years.

## What the deal is worth

Bayern did not give figures. German media reported that the extension is the **most lucrative contract in the club's history**, according to Reuters. The new deal keeps him in Munich until he is almost 36.

Bayern chief executive **Jan-Christian Dreesen** called the extension "a commitment to FC Bayern and to a story that is far from over".

## What it means for the Premier League record

The biggest loser is the Premier League's record book. Kane has 213 Premier League goals, **47 short of Alan Shearer's record of 260**. If he stays to 2029, he would be 36 before he could chase it, and in August he said the Premier League no longer held the same appeal for him.

## Watching Bayern from Pakistan

In winter, Saturday Bundesliga afternoon matches kick off at 7:30pm PKT and the evening game at 10:30pm PKT, while Champions League nights start at 1am PKT (early Wednesday or Thursday in Pakistan). Kane also captained England to third place at this summer's World Cup.
