The club's top priority this summer will be to sign a great striker, with Harry Kane on their wishlist, according to Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer.


On Wednesday night, the Bavarians were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League at the quarterfinal stage for the third consecutive year after falling to Manchester City on an overall score of 4-1.


Bayern's struggles have been exacerbated by their inability to replace Robert Lewandowski, who moved for Barcelona last summer and left Bayern with goals and a general all-around presence.


Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, a seasoned journeyman, has played up top this season and, to his credit, has scored 17 goals in 29 games. Bayern, however, has only had the option of inserting wide players like Sadio Mane and Serge Gnabry through the middle.


Hainer acknowledged that the absence of a center forward is a glaring tactical weakness that they would attempt to address after Wednesday's game against Man City.


It was clear that we need a number nine who would make immediate changes, he remarked.


You may anticipate that we will bolster our team so that we can compete in the league and the Champions League.


"We are lacking a striker who can score goals. We'll undoubtedly require that in the future. We would buy someone right away if you could suggest someone who could become popular right away.


When former manager Julian Nagelsmann publicly expressed his appreciation for the striker last summer, Bayern first made their interest in Kane known despite the fact that Tottenham's demands would probably make a transfer chase too expensive.


However, 90min is aware that Bayern Munich is still interested in signing Kane, whose contract is slated to end in 2024.


As soon as the club names a permanent replacement for Antonio Conte, Kane will reevaluate his position about a new contract with Spurs.
