Ex-Spurs striker Lineker urges Kane to quit for Bayern Munich

Former Tottenham striker Gary Lineker has urged Harry Kane to leave Spurs for Bayern Munich.

Lineker says Kane must leave Bayern he wants to experience winning silverware before retirement.

Speaking to The Sun, Lineker said: "I think Harry will leave Tottenham - and he should do. I think he wants to go and that they will make it happen.

"The time is right for him, and the right club has come in for him. Munich is a lovely city and Bayern are one of the great clubs in world football.

"Alan Shearer is willing to drive Harry to the airport because he wants to keep his Premier League goalscoring record intact.

"But Harry is already the all-time record scorer for England and Tottenham.

"The game is about winning team honours rather than individual records and that is what Harry needs.

"I don't see Spurs finishing even close to the top four next season.

"And if Harry doesn't win trophies with Bayern then he really must be a jinx."
