Bayern Munich fear their chances of signing Kane have taken a hit after Hoeness' comments
Bayern Munich insiders fear the comments made by honorary president Uli Hoeness regarding Harry Kane over the weekend could prove more damaging to their pursuit of the Tottenham captain.
Hoeness turned up at Bayern's training camp in the Bavarian town of Tegernsee on Saturday and, never shy of an opinion, bullishly told Sport1: 'Harry Kane has clearly signalled in all conversations that his decision stands - and if he keeps to his word, then we'll get him, because then Tottenham will have to buckle.'
However, the last thing Bayern want to do is rile Daniel Levy and make negotiations even more difficult than they already are.
Chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen and technical director Marco Neppe met Levy in London for breakfast last Thursday to establish a good contact and build a rapport.
Dreesen was not happy when that meeting became public and others believe Hoeness's bold comments will only make Levy more stubborn.
Bayern have yet to establish an asking price for Kane. They know £70m plus bonuses is not enough but will try again before considering whether to wait for next year.
Key will be Kane's commitment to join them.
Both Manchester United and Chelsea will be waiting if Kane runs down his contract while Paris St Germain are in the background now.
Levy is understood to have a good relationship with PSG's owners and they have shown an inclination to bid if Kane is willing to join them.
They are also running meetings with Juventus over Dusan Vlahovic and have spoken to Randal Kolo Muani of Eintracht Frankfurt.
