Speaking to reporters, Postecoglou said, “I haven’t had any assurances and I wouldn’t expect any. Harry is already part of the history of this club and I want him involved here. My conversation with him will be about how we can make this club successful and that is what he wants as well.

“I’m trying to concentrate on the things that I know right now, and what I know right now is that Harry’s part of this squad. He’s looking forward to coming back to training, getting among the players back in here and we start working together.”

Kane will return to preseason practise later this week, and Postecoglu revealed some details on what he will say to him then.

“Harry is already part of the history of this club and I want him involved here. My conversation with him will be about how we can make this club successful and that is what he wants as well,” he said. “I doubt it will be defining in the manner people think. I want to introduce myself to Harry, give him my vision, get an understanding from him over what his vision is and try be successful.”

Bayern Munich, the defending champions of the Bundesliga, is eager to complete the blockbuster transfer from Tottenham Hotspur.

The German giants made a fresh offer of £70 million ($90 million) plus add-ons on Sunday after Tottenham turned down their initial offer of £60 million ($77 million) plus add-ons to buy Kane last month.

Even though the striker is in the final year of his deal, Spurs remain committed to keeping Kane on the team. On Wednesday, he is expected back for preseason training.
