Former Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has doubted whether the German champions would be able to afford Tottenham Hotspur centre-forward Harry Kane.
There is currently a host of speculation surrounding the England captain, who is believed to be open to leaving the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium during this summer's transfer window.
Manchester United are currently being heavily linked with the 29-year-old, while there is believed to be long-standing interest from Bayern, as the German side look for a replacement for Robert Lewandowski.
Manchester City were heavily linked with Kane in the summer of 2021, but they could not come to an agreement with Spurs over a fee, and the Citizens signed Erling Braut Haaland the following year.
Kane has now entered the final 18 months of his contract in North London, although it is still likely that Spurs would demand close to £100m for the centre-forward this summer.
Hoeness, who retired as Bayern president in 2019, has doubted whether the Bundesliga champions would be able to afford the striker this summer.
"He's a great player, but that's an order of magnitude. Manchester City got out at €140m (£123m), €150m (£130m). I can't imagine that these are amounts that Bayern Munich wants or can pay," Hoeness told journalist Maximilian Koch.
Kane has again been in strong form for Spurs during the 2022-23 campaign, scoring 17 goals and registering three assists in 28 appearances in all competitions.
The forward only managed one goal in six outings in the group stage of the Champions League, but he has 15 goals in 20 Premier League appearances this term.
Last summer, Bayern boss Julian Nagelsmann expressed an interest in bringing Kane to Allianz Arena.
"He's very expensive that's the problem - but brilliant player, one of two or three who can play as a centre forward [as well as a] No 10, but he's very strong, brilliant with [his] head and both feet," Nagelsmann told reporters.
"He could score a lot in the Bundesliga, I don't know the price, but it's really tough for Bayern Munich. We'll see what happens in the future."
Meanwhile, Bayern CEO Oliver Kahn told Bild last year: "He is under contract at Tottenham. Sure, he is an absolute top striker, but that's all a dream of the future. So let's see what happens."
There could be huge changes at Tottenham this summer, as head coach Antonio Conte is said to be preparing to leave the club at the end of the campaign.
