Why sign until 2029?

Harry Kane's new deal until 2029 is a long commitment, but also a strategic move for Bayern. Longer contracts protect clubs from losing star players for free when their deals expire, ensuring they can demand a high transfer fee if another club wants to buy him before then. It also signals stability for the player and club.
