Daniel Levy has confirmed that Tottenham have a buy-back clause to re-sign Harry Kane from Bayern Munich.

Kane left Spurs for the German club in a £100m move in the transfer window just gone, with the north London club not wanting to risk the possibility of losing the England captain on a free transfer next summer.

Levy, who came under fire from Tottenham supporters for letting Kane go, was asked by at a fans’ forum on Tuesday night if the club had a buy-back clause on Harry Kane.

The Tottenham chairman replied: “Of course.” Levy did not go into any further detail on the manner and figures relating to that buy-back option.

Upon announcing his departure from Tottenham at the beginning of August, Kane appeared to refuse to rule out a return to the club in the future.

Harry Kane admits there were talks between a number of clubs for his signature during the summer, but he insists he’s very happy he chose Bayern Munich.

Kane maintains Bayern Munich always felt like the right choice for his next club as the England striker prepares to face Man Utd in the Champions League.

“Obviously, over the summer I know there were some talks between a few clubs in the background, but Bayern were a team I was really interested and excited by,” the England captain said ahead of Wednesday night’s Group A opener at the Allianz Arena.

“There were not too many other discussions once they came in. It was between them and Tottenham to talk and then the deal got done.

“My focus is on here. Manchester United are a great club, a really big club as well. I just decided to come here and am really happy I have.”
