Harry Kane, with a record of 30 goals in 38 Premier League games for Tottenham last season, has been included in the team’s pre-season tour to Australia and the Far East. In contrast, goalkeeper Hugo Lloris was not chosen.
On Thursday, Chairman Daniel Levy engaged in discussions with Bayern Munich representatives concerning a potential transfer deal involving the England captain, Kane.
Lloris, the Frenchman, was excluded from the tour to allow him the chance to “investigate potential transfer deals,” according to a statement from Spurs. The 36-year-old Spurs captain, since his joining in 2012, has appeared in 447 games.
Tottenham’s manager, Ange Postecoglou, avoided commenting on 2018 World Cup winner Lloris when asked about him during Monday’s news conference.
With only one year remaining in his contract, Kane’s future has been a subject of intense speculation this summer.
Bayern expressed interest in signing Tottenham’s highest ever goalscorer, but have yet to finalize a deal for the 29-year-old Kane.
On Monday, Postecoglou revealed his plan to present Kane with “his strategy for ensuring the club’s success.”
This Friday, Tottenham is scheduled to depart for Perth for an all-Premier League match with West Ham on Tuesday.
Following their visit to Perth, Tottenham will head to Thailand to play against Leicester on 23 July. Then, they will proceed to Singapore for a hastily arranged game against local team Lion City on 26 July. This comes after their original opponents, Roma, withdrew from the tour.

Bayern’s got their eyes on Kane! They’ve got taste, I’ll give ’em that.
so Kane’s off to Bayern then? :O Big loss for Spurs, can’t imagine the team without him!
Guess it’s the end of an era with Hugo looking at transfers. At 36, he’s been a stalwart. Wish him all the best.
Hugo out, Kane potentially too… wonder who’s next. Changes in the team might just shake things up a bit, hope it’s for the better.
Interesting times ahead for Tottenham…new season, new strategies, maybe new players? Let’s wait n see!
I still hope we can keep Harry… he’s the heart of the team! come on levy, don’t let him go 🙁
