HARRY KANE could force a cut-price exit away from Bayern Munich this summer thanks to an unusual clause in his contract.

The captain, 32, can reportedly leave for just £56.7MILLION at the end of the campaign despite his outstanding goalscoring record and having two years remaining on his contract.

According to German outlet Bild , Kane’s £56.7m release clause can be activated if the striker expresses his intention to leave by the end of the January transfer window.

The value price tag looks like pennies when stacked up against the £86m Bayern paid for Kane to prise him away from Tottenham in 2023.

While Kane still appears to be at the peak of his powers, scoring 98 goals and registering 29 assists in 103 appearances for the Bavarians since his arrival.

Kane has shut down any rumours of an exit since his switch, insisting he and his family are happy in Germany.

He said in May: “You know, I think in , in life, you never know what is around the corner. But for me, I’m really happy here in Munich.

“My family has settled down. My kids are loving it here in school, so yes, this is my life here for the foreseeable future.

“I love the manager. I love the team here. I think we’re only just getting started for a really successful period for this club, and I want to be a big part of that.

“So who knows how many years, but for sure, I want to be here for a while.”

However, the lure of a return to the Premier League to try and break ‘s all-time top scorer record could potentially change that for Kane.

The prolific bagsman is currently second in the all-time list with 213 goals, just 47 behind Shearer’s tally of 260.

A return to the English top flight has been rumoured since his exit, with , Liverpool and former club amongst those linked.

Tottenham are if Bayern do choose to sell their star man.
