Bayern Munich expresses apprehension over Kane's potential acquisition.
The head-to-head encounter between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga concluded in a 1:1 tie after 90 minutes. With the referee blowing the final whistle, Bayern's top marksman Kane was no longer in action, having been substituted earlier due to an injury. Bayern now faces concerns.
Bayern Munich finds itself worried about promising forward Harry Kane before their Champions League journey to England. The 31-year-old sustained an injury to his left ankle during the Bundesliga match against Bayer Leverkusen (1:1) and was taken off towards the latter stages of the game. Munich's sports director Max Eberl expressed his concerns after witnessing Kane's agonizing ordeal on pay-TV channel Sky, but admitted to lacking more information. "If Harry leaves the pitch, it's serious. It doesn't look good," he said, before adding, "I hope he's turned into robust English wood now."
Germany's football legends will face Aston Villa in their second group stage encounter of the Champions League on Wednesday (9 pm CEST/DAZN), with live updates on ntv.de. Back in their opening match, they demolished Dinamo Zagreb 9:2, with Kane bagging a quartet of goals. Bayern's coach Vincent Kompany, however, remains reluctant to make a diagnosis, stating, "I'm no doctor," while expressing optimism for Wednesday's game.
Super striker Kane, who recently transferred from Tottenham Hotspur to Bayern in the summer of 2023, almost tipped the balance in the game with a pinpoint pass to Serge Gnabry at the start of the second half, resulting in an intriguing double opportunity that ultimately ended with two shots striking the woodwork in quick succession, conceding Bayern's potential 2:1 advantage.
Kane, who boasts no club titles to his name, currently tops the Bundesliga goal tally with an impressive five strikes. Last season, he clinched the top scorer accolade and even momentarily flirted with the historic 41-goal mark achieved by Robert Lewandowski in the 2020/2021 season.
Despite his injury during the Bundesliga match against Bayer Leverkusen, Kane still showed his soccer skills by setting up a potential goal for Bayern Munich. Bayern's next soccer challenge is against Aston Villa in the Champions League, and they will need Kane in top form.
