Postecoglou confirms Kane departure is 'imminent'
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has confirmed Harry Kane's move to Bayern Munich is "imminent" after the clubs agreed a fee that could rise to €138million. Bayern have tracked the England captain all summer and a number of bids were turned down, but a breakthrough was reached on Wednesday night. It left the ball in Kane's court and he decided on Thursday to leave his boyhood club and join the Bundesliga champions, who will pay an initial €115m for the forward with add-ons able to potentially take the transfer up to an overall fee of €138m. Reports on Friday morning initially suggested Spurs had refused to give Kane permission to travel to Germany, but they were squashed by Tottenham and he is set to fly out on Friday afternoon and will complete a medical once he lands in Munich. Postecoglou, speaking ahead of Sunday's trip to Brentford, confirmed: "Fair to say I don't have a blow by blow account but my understanding is it has progressed to the point where it looks like it will happen. "From that perspective, at least it gives us some clarity and we move forward without Harry. "From my perspective it is just about understanding where we are at and the information I have at the moment is the deal is imminent but like with all these things, you leave yourself some leeway. "But moving forward and training today preparing for Brentford, we are doing it without Harry. "It is best Harry speaks for himself in terms of the decision but no doubt he is one of the greats of this football club and that never changes. "I am only new in the building but fairly evident Harry Kane will always be one of the greats for this football club."
