But when the England captain eventually leaves, where will he go? Tim Sherwood weighed up Chelsea\u2019s chances.<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s been three years since Kane<\/a> left boyhood side Tottenham to join Bayern Munich, and he\u2019s gone to a completely new level with the German outfit. In 156 appearances for Bayern, he\u2019s scored 154 goals.<\/p>\n He\u2019s also created 37 more goals, winning the Bundesliga twice. This season, he\u2019s a real favourite to win the Ballon d\u2019Or, already having a hand in 12 goals in nine Bayern outings. But where will he end up?<\/p>\n Kane is out of contract at Bayern at the end of the season. But Bayern president Herbert Hainer has said that he is \u201cvery optimistic\u201d that Kane will put pen to paper on a new deal. It is unclear how long it is for.<\/p>\n There is a strong belief that Kane wants to finish his career in the Premier League, to give him the chance to break Alan Shearer\u2019s Premier League record. He needs 48 goals in England\u2019s top flight to beat Shearer.<\/p>\n With Kane likely to return to England at some stage, question marks over who he will join are starting to rise. Man City is hardly an option now, if their appeal is unsuccessful. Man United are struggling again.<\/p>\n On The Overlap Daily<\/a>, Tim Sherwood<\/a> told Jamie Redknapp<\/a> that a return to Tottenham makes the most sense because Kane \u2013 who was given his debut by Sherwood \u2013 is never going to join Arsenal or Chelsea.<\/p>\n \u201cKane will look for a way back to the Premier League, so he can break Shearer\u2019s record. Will he go to Man United? Not at the moment; he won\u2019t because he can\u2019t win anything. He\u2019ll probably sign a new deal.<\/p>\n \u201cStay at Bayern for another year and a half. Then he will look for a way back. At the moment, he would [pick Tottenham over Man United]. Why would he choose Man United over Tottenham?\u201d Sherwood said.<\/p>\n \u201cHe might as well go to a club where he\u2019s loved. If there\u2019s an opportunity to go to another club, apart from Arsenal and Chelsea, because he\u2019s never going there. I think Tottenham finish above Man United.\u201d<\/p>\n Any club would love to sign Kane, regardless of their current players. This is a game-changer, one of the top-five players in the world, in the prime of his life and ageing like a fine wine. A Ballon d\u2019Or favourite.<\/p>\n But Chelsea have one of the best strikers in the world, too. Joao Pedro is producing Erling Haaland-like numbers<\/a>. As long as Pedro remains at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea do not need to sign a starting striker.<\/p>\n Could Kane drop deep as he gets older? Absolutely. His range of passing is immense, and there is a chance he becomes a no.10 down the line. Kane improves anyone, but Chelsea don\u2019t need a striker.<\/p>\nHarry Kane\u2019s current deal at Bayern Munich ends in June 2027<\/h2>\n
Tim Sherwood names the club he thinks Harry Kane will join<\/h2>\n
How would you compare Chelsea\u2019s sporting directors to their counterparts at other English clubs? Have they really been that bad? \ud83e\udd14<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>Would Chelsea even want to sign Kane?<\/h2>\n
