Bayern Munich are ready to break their transfer record to sign Harry Kane.
Bayern’s record transfer is the €80m they paid Atletico Madrid for Lucas Hernandez in 2019.
Sky Germany say Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen and technical director Eric Neppe flew to London this morning for talks with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy.
Liverpool have rejected a bid from Bayern Munich that would be worth up to £30m. They offered £23.5m upfront for the striker, an additional £6.5m in add-ons would be paid if Bayern won three Champions League and Mane lifted the Ballon d’Or three times.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has urged Liverpool’s fans to «respect» Mane’s move to Germany and has labelled the forward one of the club’s «greatest ever players».
The 55-year-old told Liverpoolfc.com: «It’s a big moment. There is no point in anyone trying to pretend otherwise.
«One of Liverpool’s greatest ever players is leaving and we must acknowledge how significant this is.
«He leaves with our gratitude and our love. He leaves with his status among the greats guaranteed. And, yes, he leaves in a moment where he is one of the best players in world football.
«But we must not dwell on what we now lose, instead celebrate what we were privileged to have.
