The England international left boyhood club Spurs to join Bayern Munich during the 2023 summer transfer window for around £86m.
Kane departed Tottenham to give himself a better chance of winning team trophies and he’s on track to lift the Bundesliga this term after Bayern Munich missed out on the title last season.
Despite this, the 31-year-old has consistently been linked with a return to the Premier League over the past couple of months and it’s emerged that there is a ‘secret clause agreement’ in his Bayern Munich contract.
This enabled him to leave for around £66m in January or around £54m during the 2026 winter transfer window.
Arsenal are known to be in the market for a striker. Merson has explained why his former club could sign Kane and why he may reject a return to Spurs.
“Arsenal will buy him,” Merson lightheartedly said on Sky Sports.
When asked whether he was serious, he added: “Why not? £64m, why not? Sol Campbell did [make the move].
“People will go ‘Oh he’s this age and that age’ but Arsenal need now.”
He continued: “If Arsenal haven’t won the League, you’ve got to take a chance. You’ve got to take a chance, buy someone that’s proven.
“I wouldn’t be surprised, and when you’re Harry Kane and you’ve been told you can go for £64m, there’s only a couple of teams who could buy him.
“Maybe Tottenham will buy him back but he’ll have to win something at Bayern Munich to go back to Tottenham. If you’ve not won anything at Bayern Munich, you’re not going back to Tottenham to win nothing.”
