Harry Kane has named ex-teammate Son Heung-min as the one Tottenham Hotspur player he would want Bayern Munich to sign, were he given the choice.

Devastated was the word the day Kane's departure for Bayern Munich was announced. In the summer of 2023, the club's record goalscorer was confirmed to have made the £120m switch to Germany as he 'felt it was the time to leave' North London.

Not just Kane alone has been missed at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but also the partnership he struck with fellow attacker Son.

Playing together between the 2015/16 and 2022/23 seasons, they shared the field 297 times. Twenty-eight of the Englishman's goals were assisted by the South Korean, and 26 vice versa to form what is statistically the Premier League's deadliest partnership in history.

Spurs have been left with Son, who plays alongside new attackers Dominic Solanke, Dejan Kulusevski, Brennan Johnson, Richarlison and Timo Werner.

However, if it were up to Kane then Bayern would be attempting another raid on the club in order to re-form his old double act.

Via BILD's Nico Linner, attending a supporters' club event the former Spurs captain was asked who he would like to bring to the Allianz Arena. "Sonny," was the one-word response he gave.

At the moment there is a very real possibility that could happen next summer, with Son's contract due to expire at the end of the season. He has most recently been linked with rivals Manchester United.

At 32 years of age, he has three goals and four assists this season with the team languishing in 12th in the Premier League.

From January 1, 2025, he will be able to negotiate contract terms with foreign clubs to begin once his Spurs deal terminates.
