Tottenham responds forcefully to Bayern Munich's acquisition of Harry Kane.
Bayern Munich is interested, but Spurs believe they have yet to receive an official bid from the German champions - and would reject it outright if one came in.
Tottenham Hotspur have stated that they would not sell Harry Kane this summer, despite Bayern Munich's interest.
The German behemoths are surrounding the England captain as their primary target this summer, and they are prepared to pursue him during the transfer window.
Kane, who turns 30 next month, has one year remaining on his contract, and Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has stated unequivocally that he will not sell to Manchester United.
Bayern Munich is now interested, although Spurs believe they have yet to receive an official bid from the German champions - and would reject it outright if one came in.
What is known is that Bayern Munich is willing to test the market, and they are not the only foreign club interested, with Paris Saint-Germain also interested as they seek prospective replacements for Kylian Mbappe, who is certain to leave this summer.
PSG inquired about Kane and was told he did not want to move abroad; this may also be true for Bayern.
Tottenham, on the other hand, do not want to sell this summer and are prepared to maintain their nerve and let Kane run his contract into the last year in the aim of convincing him to sign on again.
They hired Ange Postecoglou as manager in the hope that he can turn the club's fortunes around and persuade Kane to stay.
Kane is also said to desire to stay in the Premier League to break Alan Shearer's goals record.
Shearer is still the Premier League's all-time highest scorer with 260 goals, while Kane has 213 and wants to break the record, which is one of the reasons he will not move abroad.
But Bayern hopes that the prospect of trophies and Champions League football will sway him.
