England international Harry Kane has revealed he’s expecting to sign a new contract with Bayern Munich next month.
The former Tottenham Hotspur forward current deal in Germany is set to expire at the end of the season, a move that has caught the attention of top clubs.
Barcelona are among the clubs monitoring the situation but Kane would love to continue in Munich, where he has enjoyed a stunning two-year spell following a €120m ($136.8m) move from Tottenham.
Asked for an update on his club future, Kane said on Friday while on international duty with England: “Talks are going well. I’ve been quite open and honest about that. We are still in talks now and I think they are progressing in the right way. Both sides have been very relaxed about it. Everyone can see I am happy there, the way I’m performing, the way I talk off the pitch. I think it is just open and honest. I am hoping something gets done.

”In terms of how it is affecting me mentally, I just get on with these kind of things. I like to take seasons as they come. I’m still contracted for another nine months officially so nothing from that point of view changes but over this camp I am concentrating more on being with England. Those contract talks can hold fire, it’s for the team behind me to talk and deal with those things.
”Over the next month or so there should be some sort of decision and I think it will be a positive one.”
Kane last week broke the 49-year record for the fastest player to score 100 Bundesliga goals in Bayern’s 7-0 victory over Union Berlin.
The striker has scored 152 goals in 154 appearances across all competitions for Bayern and is among the favourites to win this year’s Ballon d’Or.
