Harry Kane sends trophy message to critics delighting in his struggles to end barren run at Bayern Munich

Bundesliga

Bayern Munich

Augsburg

The England captain severed career-long ties with Tottenham in the summer of 2023 after failing to get his hands on major silverware in north London. A big-money move to Germany was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/everyone-laughing-england-harry-kane-selfish-robert-lewandowski-record-bayern-munich-trophy-bid/blt802d3f428a3edcce" target="_blank">expected to deliver the tangible success he craves</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Bayern have, however, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/failure-harry-kane-addresses-transfer-talk-bayern-munich-39-goal-striker-missing-out-major-silverware/blt0a175ac70502d40f" target="_blank">endured a rare wobble in pursuit of major honours</a>, with Bayer Leverkusen landing the Bundesliga title in historic fashion. Kane and Co have also suffered domestic cup heartache, leaving the Champions League as their only route to glory.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

They have reached the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/harry-kane-champions-league-war-warning-england-jude-bellingham-bayern-munich-semi-final-real-madrid/blte74d39fdcf4bb2fb" target="_blank">semi-finals of that competition, where they will face Real Madrid</a>, but Kane has told <a href="https://twitter.com/TNTSportsBR/status/1780978577602699618 " target="_blank">TNT Sports Brazil</a> why he is not overly concerned about potentially ending the 2023-24 campaign empty-handed: “I think the only one I have to prove anything to is to myself, you know. I always talk about improving and trying to get better day in, day out. Winning is a consequence of doing all the right things and preparing and doing all the stuff that people don’t see. Of course, you know, I know it’s been difficult not to have a trophy yet in my career. But I also know I’ve got plenty of years to go and, you know, I’m here at Bayern Munich to try and achieve that. We have an opportunity now in the Champions League to do something special. So that’s where my motivation is and that’s what I’ll continue to do.”

WHAT KANE SAID

Kane has hit 39 goals this season, doing his bit for the collective cause at Bayern, and is tied to a contract through to 2027. He has offered <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/harry-kane-transfer-rumour-gary-lineker-crying-laughter-england-striker-reacting-premier-league-speculation-bayern-munich-star/blt765d19246d16d1d6" target="_blank">no indication that a spell at the Allianz Arena will be cut short</a>, meaning that he still has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/people-saying-jinx-making-jokes-harry-kane-told-trophies-will-come-bayern-munich-disappointing-talk-premier-league-transfer/blt6f6beebc95710d89" target="_blank">many more trophy bids left in him</a>.
