Bayern Munich forward Harry Kane reportedly possesses a decreasing release clause in his contract.
The England captain has just reached the 18-month stage of a four-year deal that he penned at the Allianz Arena in the summer of 2023.
A remarkable 70 goals and 22 assists have been contributed from his 72 appearances in a Bayern shirt, yet the 31-year-old is still searching for the first piece of club silverware in his career.
With Bayern six points clear at the top of the Bundesliga table and facing a Champions League playoff tie with Celtic, full focus is on trying to deliver a famous double at the end of the season.
Nevertheless, according to BILD, opportunities may arise for Kane to depart Bayern in the future.

What is Kane's release clause?
The report claims that Kane would have been available for £66m had any clubs registered an interest in the recent winter transfer window.
Furthermore, it is stated that the Tottenham Hotspur legend's release clause will drop to €65m (£53.98m) for the 2026 equivalent.
While the report stresses that Kane has no desire to cut short his time in Germany, it highlights that he could be provided with a chance to move elsewhere later in his career.
Kane stands to have 18 months remaining on his contract if he does not pen a renewal between now and the end of 2025.

Which clubs could move for Kane?
Although Kane would have turned 32 years of age by this point, it is realistic to expect that there would be widespread interest in his services.
In terms of the Premier League, every high-profile club aside from Arsenal - the rivals of Spurs - and Manchester City - due to the presence of Erling Haaland - will be deemed to be a viable option.
Therefore, that could see Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa, Newcastle United and former club Spurs consider moves for Kane.
Barcelona may view Kane as a like-for-like replacement for veteran Robert Lewandowski, while Real Madrid could hold an interest if they were willing to move Kylian Mbappe out to the right flank.
