Bayern Munich is in top shape and in top form in the 2025/26 season so far, registering only wins and regularly chomps on opposition defences for tea. Harry Kane is the main man for the Bavarians and points to gaffer Vincent Kompany for bringing the team together and getting them to play at their best.
“I think he has (unlocked a different level in me,” Kane told Daily Mail Sport (via @iMiaSanMia). “He is a fantastic coach, not just tactically but also as a person. We’re very similar in our mindset
when it comes to working as a team. Full credit to him because from the moment he came in, there were question marks about what he would bring and he’s been absolutely fantastic.”
The 32-year-old England striker pointed out a facet of the Belgian’s system. “One thing that stands out with him is more one-touch play around the box. When you’re at a team like Bayern, you’re going to come up against teams with low blocks that defend deep,” Kane continued. “I’m someone who likes to turn on the ball and play forward passes but that’s not always possible, so we’ve spoken a lot about opening my body, playing around the corner quickly with one-touch.
“I feel like I’ve added to my game — not getting stuck on the ball as much, and a bit more fluidity. I’m always trying to improve and he pushes that. It doesn’t matter if you’ve scored 400 goals or no goals, he’s trying to improve you as a player and a person and he’s definitely done that with me.”
