Bayern aim to extend Harry Kane and Michael Olise, Rummenigge says

Bayern are confident about their efforts to extend Harry Kane’s contract and keep Michael Olise at the club for the long term. The two forwards are among the most sought-after attacking players in Europe. Kane, 33, is approaching the end of his current deal, while Olise, 24, is already under contract with the German champions until the summer of 2029. Club director Karl-Heinz Rummenigge says both players intend to stay.

Speaking to Ran, Rummenigge said he expected progress on both fronts. “Both of them intend to stay at Bayern for a long time. I hope — and I am also completely convinced — that Harry will extend his contract soon. Michael will be next,” he said. No new deals have been officially announced.

Rummenigge also stressed how difficult it is to replace players capable of influencing matches at the highest level. “At Bayern Munich, we can consider ourselves very fortunate to have two players — Harry Kane and Michael Olise — among the leading candidates for the Ballon d’Or,” he said, describing them as world-class players who are rare to find.

Since arriving from Tottenham Hotspur, Kane has become central to Bayern’s plans. His goals and performances have strengthened his standing among Europe’s leading forwards. Rummenigge believes the England captain has a particularly strong case for this year’s individual award. “The decisive criterion is individual performance, and Harry Kane is ahead at this level. His goals and trophies speak for themselves.” Olise, too, has become an important attacking presence since joining the club. Extending both players would give Bayern greater continuity in attack.
