Report: Bayern Munich 'keeping a close eye' for new Harry Kane backup
"Harry Kane looks increasingly likely to stay at Bayern Munich for the foreseeable future, with contract talks reportedly set for next summer. But the Bavarians will still need a reliever for their 32-year-old lead striker, and the current solution - Chelsea loanee Nicolas Jackson - does not appear to be one for the long term. From a report in Tz, as captured by @iMiaSanMia:"
"Jackson has not been half bad in his scarce opportunities so far, but has not convinced either - though a considerable chunk of his playing time to date has actually been alongside rather than in place of Kane. The 24-year-old Chelsea man is not getting the minutes he needs to consistently showcase what he can do as a lone striker, is not really making an argument to get those minutes, and is unlikely to be satisfied with this kind of playing time anyway."
Harry Kane appears likely to remain at Bayern Munich for the foreseeable future, with contract talks reportedly scheduled for next summer. Bayern still require a reliever for their 32-year-old lead striker. Chelsea loanee Nicolas Jackson has shown some promise in limited opportunities but has not convincingly established himself as a long-term replacement or earned consistent minutes as a lone striker. Franculino Djú of FC Midtjylland is on Bayern's shortlist and is scoring prolifically for his club. Bayern will need to persuade a potential recruit that a reserve role suits their ambitions if they pursue a young backup.
