      According to Florian Plettenberg, Man Utd “never lost their focus on Goretzka” who is “on the Premier League club’s list”.
      The 28-year-old has insisted he wants to remain at the Bundesliga champs despite interest from United and also West Ham.
      Goreztka told Sky Germany: ” I have no intention to leave Bayern. I love the club, I love the city, I love the fans.”
      But ex-Chelsea boss Tuchel is said to prefer Joshua Kimmich and Konrad Laimer.

      And Ten Hag hopes that could change the Germany international’s mind.
      Sky Sports in Germany say Tuchel will happily sell Goretzka for around £43m, as they bid to fund their pursuit of Harry Kane.
      United have already recruited a midfielder Mason Mount this summer from Chelsea for £60milllion.
      Goretzka’s contract for the German club is set to run out in 2026 after signing a long-term contract back in 2021.

      The midfielder joined Bayern back in 2019 and has since notched 34 goals and 35 assists across 179 appearances in all competitions for Bayern. 
      After undergoing surgery for a knee injury, he started in 22 Bundesliga matches last season.
      But with the arrival of Laimer from RB Leipzig this summer and with emerging star Ryan Gravenberch pushing for a spot, Goretzka is no longer the main man in Tuchels starting XI.

      Bayern Munich consider offering ‘the next Kylian Mbappe’ to Tottenham as sweetener in Harry Kane transfer chase

      by

      BAYERN MUNICH could consider offering Mathys Tel to Tottenham as a sweetener in their transfer pursuit of Harry Kane. The German champions have twice bid for Kane this summer and, according to The Telegraph, the two clubs are set for fresh talks.

      It is claimed Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen and technical director Marco Neppe are flying to London.
      They were expected to arrive on Friday but their journey has been pushed back till Monday.
      It is added that Bayern have an ace up their sleeve in the form of 18-year-old attacking starlet Tel.
      It is believed Spurs have made enquiries for the playmaker over the summer, something the Bundesliga kings could lean on.

      Tel – who has been compared to Kylian Mbappe – has six goals in his 28 Bayern games.
      But it remains to be seen whether he fits in Thomas Tuchel’s plans going forward.
      Tuchel recently said of Tel’s future: “We will definitely discuss that – if something changes – very late in the transfer window.”
      Kane has been part of Tottenham’s pre-season tour but he is believed to be open to a move to Bayern.

      PSG have also been linked with the England captain but he does not want a move to France.
      Bayern are thought to be willing to pay up to £86m for Kane, who has only a year left on his current Spurs deal.
      But they could also wait until January in an attempt to try get the forward in a cut-price deal.

      The Bundesliga giants are desperate to land the England skipper from Tottenham in a mega move.
      But their discreet plans to fly to the UK were thwarted when the details of their jet were leaked and went viral online.
      The aircraft was due to leave Oberpfaffenhofen at 10am this morning and return to Bavaria this evening.
      But last night Bayern were said to have ditched that plane – and instead made an alternative route.

      Bild state another private jet is flying from Munich Airport to Biggin Hill in South-East London today – although it is unclear whether the club bosses were on it.
      Either way, the fact Bayern are planning another trip to London today – two weeks after initially heading across – shows they are relatively confident of striking a deal for the goal machine.
      SunSport understands talks are still set to go ahead this afternoon with Kane’s wife Katie and family already sounding out properties and international schools in Munich.

      Bayern’s CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen and technical director Marco Neppe – who skipped the club’s tour to the Far East – are expected in London for the discussions with Spurs chief Daniel Levy.
      Most read in Football
      Bayern are likely to offer Tottenham around £86million but Spurs are holding out for £100m for Kane, who turns 30 today and has 12 months left on his contract.
      The German giants have had £60m and £70m offers rejected so far.
      Manchester United remain interested in Kane but Levy has always insisted he did not want to sell to a rival Premier League club, while PSG are also keen.
      Kane has made it clear he is keen on the move to Bayern.
      His father Pat and brother Charlie, who both look after his interests, have impressed the Germans with the way they have handled the delicate situation.
      Although the Three Lions star has made it clear he will not sign a new deal this summer, Levy has still not lost out hope that if Kane stays on for next season he may agree an extension down the line.
      Earlier this week, Bayern made their interest in Kane known after president Herbert Hainer described him as an “attractive player”.

      Bayern Munich have put pressure on Tottenham with two bids for their talisman, with a third set to be submitted.
      And one German reporter could not help but poke fun at the situation with a clever joke.
      During Postecoglou’s press conference ahead of the friendly against Leicester, the reporter unveiled a Bayern Munich shirt with “Harry Kane 9” emblazoned across the back.
      He said to the Spurs boss: “What does that look like? It looks quite good, no?”

      Postecoglou reacted angrily, saying: “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Did you get a good laugh? Very good. You came a long way for that.”
      Tottenham have now banned the reporter from future press conferences after withdrawing his accreditation for the Leicester match.
      Some fans think the club has overreacted to a bit of harmless fun, with one suggesting they are “bitter”.
      The Kane saga appears to be having a negative effect on Postecoglou who admitted he is “not relaxed” about the situation.

      It has been a difficult few days for the Aussie with Roma pulling out of a pre-season friendly before the Leicester game was cancelled due to a waterlogged pitch.
      Kane’s wife Katie Goodland is also reported to have spent the last few days in Munich looking for a new house.
      Bayern are confident Kane wants to join them, with their director Uli Hoeness publicly confirming that belief.
      SunSport understands the Three Lions striker is open to a move to Bavaria.
      But he has also not ruled out either staying and running down his Spurs contract to leave on a free transfer next summer, or even signing a new deal. More

      He was spotted wearing blacked-out boots during Tottenham’s opening training session in front of 6,000 fans at the Rajamangala National Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on Saturday.
      That was ahead of Sunday’s friendly clash with Leicester at the same ground as part of Spurs’ Asia-Pacific pre-season tour.
      Kane, who turns 30 on Friday, is being courted by Bayern Munich.
      The German giants have had bids of around £60million and £70m turned down already, with suggestions they will come in with a fresh offer when Spurs return home.

      New Spurs’ boss Ange Postecoglou has had the last ten days to work with Kane.
      Historically the ex-Celtic boss has favoured a centre-forward who naturally favours relentless pressing than Kane does.
      Yet when asked if the club’s greatest goalscorer would need to adapt to his methods, Postecoglou replied: “No not really. I’ve had all sorts of strikers. 
      “I think what I look for in those type of positions is someone being laser-focused on scoring goals and part of that is if you work hard on keeping the ball close to the opposition goal then that’s going to help you.
      “All the strikers I’ve had have bought into that because they know they’re going to get more opportunities.
      “There are very little gaps in Harry’s game. His ability on and off the ball are more than enough for us.”
      Kane’s England colleague James Maddison completed a £40million switch to Spurs in June and is hopeful the striker will stay.
      Maddison, 26, added: “I’m not going to go into details on Harry’s situation. People speak about that enough and it’s out of my hands, really.
      “But from my point of view I would love to be able to play with him, he’s a world-class centre-forward, the best No9 in the world, a brilliant role model and an uber professional guy. “Whatever happens, happens.” More

      Fuming Postecoglou asks ‘you flew all the way for that?’ after journalist’s cheeky stunt at Tottenham press conference

      by

      ANGE POSTECOGLOU did not see the funny side after a German reporter held up a Bayern Munich shirt with Harry Kane on the back in his Tottenham press conference.The Spurs boss was speaking to the media ahead of his side’s friendly with Leicester on Sunday in Bangkok when the Bild journalist pulled off the stunt.

      The reporter who brought the Kane Bayern shirt to Postecoglou’s press conference was BILD’s Max Schrader. Postecoglou was angry when he saw the shirt and said: “What can I say about that? Nothing!” – Spurs press officer then wanted to intervene, but the coach continued [@BILD] pic.twitter.com/rrVWt505ch— Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) July 22, 2023

      He lifted a new Bayern kit with the name ‘Kane’ and the No9 on the back and asked Postecoglou what he thought of it, cheekily adding: “It looks quite good, no?”
      Safe to say the Spurs boss was deeply unimpressed by the hack’s antics.
      Postecoglou, sporting a face like thunder, replied: “I don’t know what you’re talking about.
      “Did you get a good laugh for it? Got what you came to get? Maybe? Very good. You came a long way for that, thank you.”

      It comes after Bayern had two approaches, believed to be £60million and £70m, turned down for Spurs legend Kane.
      The German giants believe the England captain, who has a year remaining on his contract, wants to join them.
      Postecoglou then moved on to answer other questions but was clearly still annoyed and made a thinly-veiled dig back at the reporter in a reply about his ambitions at Spurs.
      The Australian, 57, said: “All I can do is just try to work hard like I have everywhere else. We’re in the early part of it. As I said, it’s a massive football club, a massive opportunity and a massive challenge here.

      “That’s what we’ll try to do, bring success to one of the biggest football clubs in the world, big enough to make up fake jumpers to be a presence.”
      Postecoglou said earlier this week that “it was fair to say I’m not relaxed about” the situation involving Kane and that it did no one any favours for the situation to drag on.
      The German reporter’s first question before his skit was whether the Spurs boss still felt that way, to which Postecoglou simply replied: “That was two days ago and nothing has changed.” More

      Harry Kane ‘to REJECT all new contract offers from Tottenham with England captain set on Bayern Munich transfer’

      by

      HARRY KANE won’t accept any new contract offers from Tottenham and is instead keen on moving to Bayern Munich.Kane has entered the final year of his deal with Spurs, who refuse to sell him for less than £100million and are hoping to tie him down to a new agreement that would increase his £300,000-per-week wages.

      According to The Times, however, the striker has no intention of penning another contract with the North Londoners this summer, meaning he will be able to leave for free at the end of the coming season.
      The England captain is not planning to push for an exit like he did in 2021 when Manchester City showed interest.
      Sources close to the player claim all options are still on the table and that he would consider a move if Tottenham do not wish to risk him entering the season without putting pen to paper on a new deal.
      Chairman Daniel Levy will have to decide whether to cash in now to avoid losing his record goalscorer for free or hold on to him and hope he leads the team to Champions League qualification.

      Bayern have had two bids turned down for Kane, who turns 30 next week, with their latest offer worth £68.5m plus add-ons.
      Tottenham could use an improved bid by the German champions to reinforce Ange Postecoglou’s side after a poor season that saw them finishing eighth in the Premier League table.
      However, Kane would also enhance the team’s hopes of a Champions League spot next season as a fifth-placed finish could suffice ahead of the 2024-2025 campaign thanks to planned reforms.
      If Tottenham make it to Europe’s elite competition then that would lead to a £60m windfall that would significantly ease the blow of losing the England record goalscorer for free.

      That would count as profit for the club as the 29-year-old came through the academy and thus cost them nothing.
      If Kane leaves then Postecoglou would have to count either on Son Heung-min who had a tough campaign or Richarlison who has only managed three goals.
      The Australian tactician may also have to sign an elite striker, which could take a long time. More

      And the Independent claim the German giants believe they have everything in place to complete a deal – apart from Daniel Levy’s approval.
      Bayern chiefs met with Spurs supremo Levy in London last Thursday.
      But they still have not been able to agree a fee for Kane, whose contract expires next summer.
      Bayern have so far had two bids worth up to £80million rejected for the striker as Levy holds out for at least £100m.

      And should the Bundesliga giants offer that fee, Spurs have reportedly already identified Kane’s successor.
      That man is 26-year-old Brazil striker Pedro – having helped his club Flamengo to a Copa Libertadores title.
      The forward has played in Europe before for Fiorentina where he endured a tough spell – but has since resurrected his career in the Brazilian Serie A.
      Pedro scored 26 and added four assists in his 35 appearances for Flamengo last season.

      There is an understanding that if Kane were to leave this summer, Spurs would reinvest the money into multiple positions as they seek too mould their squad to Ange Postecoglou’s style.
      The club also admire Rasmus Hojlund – although Manchester United appear to have stolen a march on the Dane as they prepare to launch a bid imminently.
      The Spurs supremo remains unwilling to sell Kane to an English club after batting away Manchester United’s interest earlier this summer.
      Spurs kicked off their pre-season preparations with a 3-2 defeat to West Ham on yesterday.
      Kane played the first 45 minutes of the game, starting alongside new signings Manor Solomon and James Maddison. More
