Paul Merson<\/a> has urged Arsenal<\/a> to end their wait for a new striker by activating Harry Kane<\/a>’s Bayern Munich<\/a> release clause. <\/p>\n

The England skipper is enjoying another prolific campaign in the Bundesliga and scored two penalties in last night’s 3-0 win over Wolfsburg to take his tally for the season to 28 goals in as many matches in all competitions.<\/p>\n

Despite his record breaking first campaign in the Bundesliga, Kane missed out on the trophies he craves after Bayer Leverkusen enjoyed a season of unprecedented success.<\/p>\n

Kane’s quest for silverware finally looks set to end in glory this season, however, with Bayern now eight points clear at the top of the table but his long-term future remains uncertain.<\/p>\n

Talk of a potential return to the Premier League resurfaced this week after it emerged that the 31-year-old’s contract contains a \u00a354million release clause that can be activated next January. <\/p>\n

Asked about the situation Kane said: ‘What I can say is that I\u2019m very happy at FC Bayern. No comment on the clause.’<\/p>\n

Arsenal kept their powder dry last month and are, as a result, belatedly set to add to their attack at the next possible opportunity.<\/p>\n

The Gunners have been linked with a move for Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, but with Newcastle in a strong negotiating position Merson believes Arsenal would be better served moving for Kane, despite his affinity to Tottenham.<\/p>\n

Merson told Sky Sports: ‘I keep on saying Isak but there’s not a lot around. I’d go Harry Kane. I’d pay the \u00a360-odd million for Harry Kane.<\/p>\n

#I know it’s not my money. Like Sol Campbell didn’t (go to Arsenal)?<\/p>\n

‘He’s got that clause. If he wins the league which he should with Bayern now but when he does that I think that’s it and come back.<\/p>\n

‘If he thinks he can beat Shearer’s record at Tottenham, but I don’t see the point coming back to Tottenham.<\/p>\n

‘There’s no point just coming back just to beat that and I don’t think he’d have as much of a chance of beating that than he would at Arsenal.’<\/p>\n

Tim Sherwood, who gave Kane is Spurs Premier League debut added: ‘I can’t see it but I think wherever he comes back to a club where he thinks he can win something and beat the record. <\/p>\n

‘He could do that at Tottenham, he’d score a lot of goals there. He wants to win trophies. <\/p>\n

‘He won’t let up, he’ll keep going. If he does decide to come back to the Premier League there will be plenty of takers but he’ll want a team who he thinks can win.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
