Harry Kane has continued to craft his name among the biggest players to have ever grace the Bundesliga as he achieve a new feat.
The England International continued his good form for Bayern Munich on Sunday as they crushed Wolfsburg 8-1. Kane’s goal during the match took him to 20 league goals for the season and saw a Bundesliga record that has stood for almost 60 years matched.
Following Kane’s spectacular strike against Wolfsburg, he became the first man since Timo Konietzka close to 60 years ago to pass the 20-goal mark in each of his first three seasons in the Bundesliga.

Kane registered 36 goals during the 2023-24 and 26 last season. He is on course to win the Golden Boots award for the third consecutive season.
The former Tottenham Hotspur forward has also been able to break trophyless curse. The 2024-25 campaign saw Kane lift the Bundesliga title, he has since gone on to win the Super Cup and has his sights set on domestic, continental and international honours with club and country in 2026.
Kane said of Bayern’s latest performance, which saw them swat aside domestic foes with the minimum of fuss: “It was great, I thought in moments we controlled it really well. We were disappointed to concede but we recovered well and started controlling the momentum. In the second-half we came out with more energy and intensity. We were ruthless in our attacks to score as many goals as we did and extend our lead to 11 points was important.”
The Englishman current deal with Bayern Munich will run through to the summer of 2027 and he’s expected to be offered a new deal.
