Bundesliga - Bayern-Bosses feel with Kane: Should turn off in vacation
FC Bayern Munchen hopes that Harry Kane will process the pain of the Euro championship final in his three-week vacation. "It was obviously hard for him now not to win the final after such an European championship," said sport director Christoph Freund. "He is recovering now, refueling energy and enjoying some time with his family for the moment."
Kane lost with the English Football-National Team the final with 1:2 against Spain. "It's heartbreaking that we couldn't reach it, for which we worked so hard," Kane himself expressed after the latest setback.
Recently, the 30-year-old had to fight again with back problems. He was substituted prematurely in the Euro final. Munich hopes that the 100-million-euro striker will recover for the premier season under new trainer Vincent Kompany. The Munich team will train for the first time with Kompany on this Wednesday.
Newcomer Ito starts on Wednesday under Kompany
"It was also a very, very long season for Harry, but he will also get these three weeks of vacation now, which every player gets," said Freund at the presentation of new signing Hiroki Ito (VfB Stuttgart). It's important for the striker to take a break.
South Korea trip without Kane
"We have another very, very intense autumn ahead of us and that's why Harry now has three weeks to recover," said Freund. Kane will therefore miss the South Korea trip from July 31st and will only return to the team in August.
Also Alphonso Davies will get time for recovery after his time at the Copa America and fourth place. The contract extension of the Canadian, who was reportedly courted by Real Madrid, is proving difficult.
"Key player" in the last contract year
"Talks have taken place, but they have not yet led to an agreement," said Freund about the "absolute key player". "He is now going into his last contract year and then we'll see how the talks progress. The door is not closed."
- The European Championship finale was a tough blow for England's Football-Nationalteam, led by the talented striker Harry Kane.
- FC Bayern Munich, eager for the new season, is counting on Kane's full recovery from his recent injuries and back problems.3.Expected to join the Bayern training sessions starting Wednesday, Hiroki Ito, a newcomer from VfB Stuttgart, will contribute to strengthening the Bundesliga team's squad.
- Bavaria's new coach, Vincent Kompany, will lead the team for the first time since joining the club this season.
- Despite the losses in both the Euros and the Copa America, the German national football team and the FC Bayern Munich are bracing for an intense autumn season ahead.
- Christoph Freund, FC Bayern's sport director, has been optimistic about the squad's recovery, including Spaniard Alphonso Davies, who is taking a well-deserved break after his participation in the Copa America.
- In an interesting turn of events, Real Madrid reportedly showed an interest in extending Davies’ contract at Bayern Munich, but the negotiations have not yet progressed.
- The 22-year-old Davies' current contract will expire soon, making him a key player in the approaching contract talks, and Bayern Munich is closely monitoring the situation.
- Hiroki Ito will be crucial to help fill the spot left by Christoph Freund's announcement of South Korea's trip without Harry Kane, as he won't be able to join the team until they return to Germany in August.
