Is Harry Kane's year over?! Vincent Kompany provides injury update on Bayern Munich striker

Bundesliga

Mainz 05

Bayern Munich

Amid concerns the England international may not feature again in 2024, Bayern manager Kompany is hopeful he could play at least one more game this year. </p>

It may be important not to rush the 31-year-old back too quickly, especially as the winter break is just a couple of weeks away.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Before the winter break begins, Bayern face Heidenheim, Shakhtar Donetsk, Mainz and RB Leipzig. If Kompany's prediction is correct, Kane could return for the Leipzig game on December 20 and possibly the Mainz one on December 14, too.</p>
