In a dramatic twist that could shake up the summer transfer window, Harry Kane has declared his readiness to join Arsenal — but his potential transfer hinges on one crucial demand he insists must be met by manager Mikel Arteta.
Following Bayern Munich’s Champions League elimination at the hands of Inter Milan, the English striker expressed his frustration over another missed opportunity to win Europe’s top prize.
Kane, who joined Bayern in hopes of finally lifting the Champions League trophy, now feels his ambitions have once again been derailed.
“I have finally decided to join Arsenal in the summer after Inter Milan eliminated us last night,” Kane revealed.
“My dream of winning trophies has once again been ruined.
I want to join Arsenal’s new project this summer, but only on one condition which Arteta must comply with.”
Kane’s comments have sent shockwaves through the football world, especially considering his deep-rooted history with Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal’s fiercest rivals.
The idea of Kane wearing an Arsenal shirt would have seemed impossible not long ago — but his hunger for silverware appears to outweigh past loyalties.
Reports suggest Kane has been closely monitoring Arsenal’s progress this season.
The North London club has impressed in both domestic and European competitions, with Arteta building a young, ambitious team that recently dominated Real Madrid.
Kane sees Arsenal as a serious contender for future titles — especially the Champions League, which continues to elude him.
However, Kane’s decision to join Arsenal is far from unconditional.
He has made it clear that he must be the squad’s main striker — the undisputed No. 9 — with the attack built around him.
He wants no rotation, no tactical experiments, and no compromises on his position.
“If I’m coming to Arsenal, it’s to win everything. But I can only do that if I’m leading the line. That’s my condition.
I want to be the focal point of the attack, no compromise,” he emphasized.
Insiders claim that Bayern Munich may be open to letting Kane go if they finish the season without major silverware.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are actively seeking a world-class forward to spearhead their Champions League ambitions.
If Arteta agrees to Kane’s terms, the door could be wide open for one of the most surprising and controversial moves in Premier League history.
Kane’s potential switch to Arsenal might seem unthinkable, but with his unwavering desire to win and Arsenal’s upward trajectory, the deal — under his single, firm condition — could very well become a stunning reality.
