It was widely believed that the England captain had joined Bayern in a deal worth £104million.
However, Hainer has now claimed that the transfer cost much less after revealing the real price of the deal.
Speaking to FAZ, he explained that Kane cost under £85million when he swapped London for Munich.
“Harry Kane didn’t cost more than 100 million – unless we win this, this and that in the next few seasons. Excluding bonuses, we’re under 100 million.”
Asked if he meant Euros or Pounds, Hainer responded: “Euros.”
Kane has settled into life in Germany since his move, attending Oktoberfest with his team-mates last weekend.
He wore traditional lederhosen as he soaked up the festivities and even met his own doppelganger.
Since joining Thomas Tuchel’s side in August, Kane has scored eight goals in seven appearances across all competitions.

However, a German rule means his hat-trick against Bochum earlier this month does not count.
The England star scored three and grabbed two assists in a 7-0 thrashing, but the goals did not come consecutively so his hat-trick has not been officially recognised.
