Harry Kane in @BILDamSONNTAG interview with @cfbayern & @altobelli13: "I felt it was time for me to take the next step in my career. I wanted this experience, to fight for titles, for the Champions League. Playing for a club as huge as Bayern is an insane challenge. I was…
Kane on the biggest difference between the Premier League and the Bundesliga: "The atmosphere in Bremen was incredible, very different from England and the Premier League. It was a league game, but it felt like a big European night, like a Champions League game. The match was a…
Kane on the conversation he had with Rummenigge before his move: "Mr. Rummenigge explained to me how the club is managed and how important the fans are. That the club is like a family: Almost everyone in the club knows everyone. The fans get very close to us players. But he also…
Kane: "It feels like there's a very strong connection with the fans here - a family. At first I could hardly believe it when I saw there were normal residential buildings on the other side of Säbener Straße. This is unique. The fans are such a big part of a football club, they're…
Kane: "I think I'm a down to earth person. I never forget where I come from. I remember well how I used to look up to stars like David Beckham. Back then, 10 seconds with one of these stars would have meant the world to me. I'm now trying to give the kids in particular who are…
Kane on the old photo alongside his wife Kate with David Beckham: "That was a great moment for me. Back then, David Beckham opened an academy for kids, to which we were invited as a school class and were allowed to train with him there. I was eleven years old. My wife and I have…
Kane on his newborn baby: "We have decided that the birth would take place in the familiar environment in London. But Henry is coming soon with his mother and three siblings and will grow up speaking German. His German will one day be better than mine. (laughs)"
Kane: "I've always followed Bayern in the Champions League, and Bundesliga matches. As a footballer, I like to watch the games of the best teams, including Bayern. I also spoke a lot with coach Thomas Tuchel beforehand: he told me which system he would like to play, what makes…
Kane on Tuchel: "We've met a few times in the Premier League. When we met in the summer, I was immediately struck by his energy. Thomas Tuchel is bursting with ideas, he has a great personality. It's important to me to have a good relationship with the coach. The foundation for…
How did Tuchel convince you of FC Bayern?
Kane: "Thomas wanted to get to know me first and told me why he wanted me at Bayern. In the same meeting, however, he went into great detail: where exactly does he see me and that I should play as a clearer #9 than I often do at…
Kane on his 100 million price tag: "I'm extremely grateful to Bayern for never giving up. They have great faith in me. But I don't want to look at the number too much. I'm here now, on the pitch, in the dressing room. I want to help, be a leader, score goals. I don't have the…
Kane: "Maybe my journey here can be an inspiration for younger (English) players to do the same and take that step. I can remember David Beckham making the move from Manchester United to Real Madrid. I was a kid and I was like, 'Wow, what an amazing experience.' Maybe I took…
Kane on Thomas Müller: "A great guy who took very good care of me from the start. On the pitch, he really does everything with his eyes, his head, this unique intuition. He's seen so many players come and go at Bayern Munich. And yet he approached me immediately with his…
Are you a classic #9 or a playmaker?
Kane: "I can play both. When Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli played as #10 at Tottenham, I was more of a classic #9 there. In Thomas Tuchel's system at FC Bayern, I'll be a clear #9. But I also love serving my team-mates with passes, like in…
Kane on Gerd Müller: "Gerd Müller was one of the greatest strikers ever. I've watched a lot of his videos on YouTube and know some of his records. But I will certainly get to know the history of this absolute legend even better here. I also admired Robert Lewandowski as a young…
How annoyed are you that you haven't won trophies in your career so far?
Kane: "That has been our goal at Tottenham year after year. We came very close to that goal and had really good years. It was a pity that we never made it to the finish line. I now want to fight for the…
Kane: "I know that when you turn 30 as a footballer, people somehow always have retirement in the back of their minds. But I would like to play at the top level for another 7-8 years. And the example of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Karim Benzema or Lewandowski shows that it…
Kane on the 2024 CL final at Wembley: "It would be an absolute dream to play this game in my home country. There are still a few months to go before then. But we can go far with our team in the Champions League."
