Harry Kane is set to fly to Munich for medical ahead of a rumoured transfer to Bayern Munich after a deal was reportedly reached between the club and Tottenham.

England striker Harry Kane is expected to fly to Munich later today to complete his £100m move to Bayern Munich. He was due to fly to Munich earlier in the day but he was reportedly turned back and went to his nearest family home to the airport after it was alleged that he is yet to be granted permission by Tottenham to complete the deal. Tottenham who are trying to make last-minute changes to the deal say that their agreement with Bayern Munich is still intact and that nothing has changed. Thomas Tuchel, Bayern's boss described the Harry Kane bid as the club's "highest priority". "We are trying to get the captain of the English national team out of England, out of the Premier League," Tuchel added. "That says it all. It is a huge deal that we are working on, a huge signature that we are working on, but we are still in the process."

Harry Kane will head to Germany later in the day to complete his transfer deal which is reportedly worth £86 million plus add-ons which takes the price close to £100 million which is both Bundesliga's and Bayern Munich's record fees. After the English captain was told that an agreement had been reached between the two clubs, he decided to take up the offer. "I had a conversation with Harry the first day I arrived, he was upfront and honest and I was the same," said Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou on Friday. "You kind of get an indication that he had kind of made up his mind that if the clubs agreed a deal, he would go. It's only fair that on a day like today our supporters do have a sense of mourning and loss, as despite the lack of success at the club, he's been a hero to them," he added.
