Harry Kane has been urged to end his professional career at Bayern Munich by Germany legend Lothar Matthaus, who claims the England striker has "done his job in the Premier League". The former Tottenham star, who still has two years left in his existing deal, continues to be linked with a return to England so he can chase down Alan Shearer's Premier League goals record.

  Kane has proved himself to be one of the best players that Bayern have signed in a long time, as he has scored 98 goals in 103 appearances across all competitions and has broken multiple goal-scoring records in Germany.

  Matthaus wants Kane to retire in Munich

  Former World Cup-winning Germany captain Matthaus strongly believes that Kane is capable of performing at the highest level for a few more years. He wants the 32-year-old to retire at Allianz Arena, and claims there is nothing more for him to achieve in English football.

• 'He's done his job in the Premier League'

  Speaking to in Germany, Matthaus said: "He's never been better, and he's made an even bigger impact here. I don't think Shearer's [Premier League] record is a motivation. He's done his job in the Premier League, and therefore, he should end his career at Bayern. If he wants to earn some money afterwards, he can move to Saudi Arabia. But I think Kane still has a few good years ahead of him at the very highest level."
