The England captain moved to Bayern Munich in the summer of 2023 and has enjoyed a sensational time of things since his switch to Germany. He has scored 73 goals in 77 appearances for Bayern since then.
But Kane has been linked with a move back to the Premier League, with a release clause valued at £65m being written into his contract. And former Crystal Palace chief Simon Jordan has told Arsenal to make a move for the 31-year-old to solve their striking issue.
Writing in a column for Mail Online, he said: “If Arsenal fans feel deflated at the end of the season for again finishing Premier League runners-up - which they should! - I’d suggest the perfect tonic for them would be to sign Harry Kane.
“A flight of fancy? Perhaps, it depends on how deep the England captain feels his attachment to his former employees, Tottenham Hotspur.
“But professionally it would make sense for all sides. Arsenal would get the prolific goalscorer to help them take the final step and Kane would give himself the best chance of winning a league title in this country as well as surpassing Alan Shearer as the Premier League’s leading marksman.
“Both of which I’d suggest gives him a more meaningful legacy than a Bundesliga winners’ medal, which Bayern Munich achieve nearly every season.
“Certainly, if Kane decided to return to his country next season with a £54million buy-out clause there to be activated, joining Arsenal would be a more sensible decision than returning to Tottenham, who need another £300m spent on players to become realistic challengers, something that is very unlikely to happen under the current ownership.
“While there may be no economic resale value in Kane, becoming champions would open a raft of commercial benefits for Arsenal that would negate that concern.”
Jordan continued by suggesting plenty of players had moved between Spurs and Arsenal in the past, while he would make the Gunners considerably stronger in the race for the Premier League table.
Kane has already spoken out on his future at the Allianz Arena amid reports of a release clause. While he did not confirm whether it was present, Kane suggested he was content in Bavaria. Speaking last month, Kane said: What I can say is that I'm very happy at FC Bayern. No comment on the clause."
