According to a German publication Bild, Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has decided to join German champions Bayern Munich after the two clubs established a preliminary agreement.

If finalized, Kane's transfer will be the most expensive in Bundesliga history, with an estimated value of (£86.4m) ksh15.8 billion.

The English club and Bayern had agreed on the move on Thursday, but Kane, who has one year left on his contract at Tottenham, had to approve.

According to Bild, the footballer agreed to the deal throughout the night without citing a source and is set to sign a four-year contract with Bayern.

The Bavarians, who won the league for the record 11th time last season, have been anxious to sign Kane as they try to strengthen their assault and compete for the Champions League championship once more.

Kane joined Tottenham's youth at 11 and made his senior debut in 2011. He has spent most of his career at the North London club and on loan at Leyton Orient, Millwall, Norwich City, and Leicester City.

Kane has a club record of 280 goals for Spurs in over 430 appearances in all competitions and 58 goals in 84 games for his country, making him their all-time leading marksman.
