Saudi Pro League targets move for Harry Kane despite England striker sealing transfer to Bayern Munich days ago
HARRY KANE is being targeted by the Saudi Pro League despite completing a move to Bayern Munich.
The England striker sealed a £104million transfer to the German champions on Saturday.
He has signed a four-year deal after arriving from Tottenham and has already made his debut.
However, that has not stopped the Saudi Pro League from identifying Kane as a potential marquee signing, alongside Kylian Mbappe.
The league's sporting director Michael Emenalo has revealed plans to bring both players to the Middle East.
He told : "I would love to have Kylian Mbappe here.

"I would love to have Harry Kane here. The league would like to have all the top players.
"And I think it will be at the heart of this whole particular strategy: it is that, in a couple of years, in a few short years, this will become a league for exceptional players only.
"It will become a league only for those who are at the top of their game because we have only 18 clubs and the space for just eight international players [at each club].
"And, yes, we have resources and we're going to use those resources to make sure, once we build up infrastructure, that the only players here are the ones at the top of their game."

Mbappe has already turned down a move to the league this summer after Al-Hilal had a world record bid accepted by PSG.
He is now set to sign a new contract with the French giants after a U-turn on his future.
As for Kane, he is only just settling in at Bayern, having finalised his move on Saturday.
He made his debut for the club later the same day, coming off the bench in their Super Cup defeat to RB Leipzig.
A host of big names have joined Saudi clubs during the current transfer window, though, including Karim Benzema and N'Golo Kante.
Mbappe's PSG team-mate Neymar looks set to be the latest high-profile addition.
The Brazilian is closing in on a move to Al-Hilal and has had a medical ahead of signing a £2.7million-a-week deal.
