England captain Harry Kane has signed a contract extension with Bayern Munich until June 30, 2029, the Bundesliga champions announced on Thursday, securing the long-term future of their prolific striker following his historic Ballon d'Or triumph.
The 33-year-old forward, who joined Bayern from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2023, has scored 156 goals in 161 competitive appearances for the German club, establishing himself as one of Europe's most consistent goalscorers.
Since arriving in Munich, Kane has helped Bayern win two Bundesliga titles, the DFB Cup and two Franz Beckenbauer Supercups. His performances culminated in him winning the 2026 Ballon d'Or last week, becoming the first Englishman to claim the prestigious individual award since Michael Owen in 2001.
Bayern confirmed the extension in an official statement, highlighting Kane's contributions to the club's domestic and European campaigns.

Expressing his happiness over the new agreement, Kane said he had developed a strong connection with the club, its supporters and the city of Munich.
"I feel right at home at FC Bayern. I love the club, the fans and the city of Munich. We have a fantastic team and, in Vincent Kompany, a fantastic manager. It makes me very proud to be part of this club," Kane said in a statement released by Bayern.
"My whole family is very happy here. I was keen to stay. I'm now looking forward to the future and I want to win many more titles with this great club," he added.
The extension puts an end to speculation surrounding Kane's immediate future, particularly suggestions that he could return to the Premier League.
Kane had previously indicated that his desire to return to English football had diminished since settling in Germany, where he has enjoyed considerable individual and team success.

Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer described Kane's journey at the club as an important chapter in its history.
"What began as a major transfer has, over time, become a special chapter in FC Bayern's history," Hainer said.
He praised the England international's achievements and popularity among supporters, describing the contract extension as a significant moment for the German champions.
Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen also welcomed the agreement, saying Kane had become an integral part of the club since arriving in 2023.
"We're delighted to have successfully extended Harry Kane's contract. This is fantastic news for us, for our fans and for the Bundesliga. The Ballon d'Or winner is staying at Bayern Munich!" Dreesen said.
He added that Kane's contribution extended beyond goalscoring, citing his influence on the team and his role as an example to other players.
Bayern board member for sport Max Eberl said the extension would provide certainty in the club's long-term sporting plans.
"This key contract extension gives us certainty in our planning. It sends a message that the biggest goals are within reach at FC Bayern," Eberl said.

Kane's move from Tottenham to Bayern in 2023 marked a significant turning point in his career.
Despite establishing himself as one of the Premier League's most prolific strikers, he had not won a major team trophy during his time at Tottenham.
That changed in the 2024-25 season when Bayern secured the Bundesliga title, giving Kane the first major team honour of his senior career.
He subsequently helped the club secure another league title and the German Cup.
Kane has finished as the Bundesliga's leading goalscorer in each of his three seasons with Bayern, demonstrating remarkable consistency in German football.
He has also won the European Golden Shoe twice, in the 2023-24 and 2025-26 seasons, and was named Germany's Footballer of the Year in 2026.
His goalscoring achievements have been accompanied by individual records in domestic and European competitions.

Kane's contract extension follows his recognition as the world's best footballer at the 2026 Ballon d'Or ceremony.
The England captain became the first English player in 25 years to win the award, following Michael Owen's triumph in 2001.
His performances for Bayern and England played a central role in securing the honour.
Kane scored 73 goals for club and country during the 2025-26 campaign, including 61 for Bayern and 12 for England.
The striker also captained England to a third-place finish at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, held across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
His achievements have further strengthened his standing among England's most successful international footballers.

Despite his domestic achievements, the UEFA Champions League remains a major objective for Kane and Bayern Munich.
The German club has reached the semi-finals of the competition twice during his time in Munich but has yet to lift the trophy with the England striker in its ranks.
Kane's decision to remain at Bayern until 2029 gives him further opportunities to pursue European success under manager Vincent Kompany.
The club has not disclosed the financial terms of the new agreement, although German media reports have suggested that it ranks among the most lucrative contracts in Bayern's history.
With his immediate future settled, Kane will continue leading Bayern's attack as the German champions pursue further domestic and European honours.
