Kane says UCL 'more open' than Bundesliga after netting 2 goals vs Chelsea

Harry Kane says the Champions League offers more opportunities to score than the Bundesliga after he grabbed two goals in Bayern Munich's 3-1 win over Chelsea on Wednesday. The England star tucked away a penalty after he was brought down by Moises Caicedo, then capitalized on teammates' pressure on Malo Gusto when the ball fell kindly for him to fire inside the far post. I always feel like in the Champions League you create maybe more chances than the Bundesliga, the games are maybe a bit more open, and that suits me, Kane told broadcaster DAZN. Hopefully I can get more than 11 this year, he added, referring to his tally in the Champions League last season. The 32-year-old Kane has already scored nine goals in five games across all competitions for Bayern so far this season 10 goals in six games including the German Supercup. It's always the aim to improve and get better, he said. Bayern got the scoring underway when Michael Olise forced an own goal from Trevoh Chalobah and migh

Bayern's search for Harry Kane backup continues after frustrating summer

Bayern Munich's search for a backup for star forward Harry Kane was continuing on the last day of the summer transfer period Monday. Bayern's efforts to sign Senegal forward Nicholas Jackson on loan from Chelsea failed late Sunday after an injury to his teammate Liam Delap forced a rethink on the deal. The clubs had reportedly reached agreement, but Delap's injury on Saturday put a halt to proceedings. Chelsea, which had reportedly asked the player to return to London, would only consider a permanent switch and Bayern insisted on a loan. They failed to reach agreement. Bayern powerbroker Uli Hoene last month said the club should only make loan signings for the rest of the transfer window, avoiding any more big-money signings following the arrival of Luis Daz from Liverpool. This, despite the departures of Kingsley Coman and Leroy San. It complicated efforts by Max Eberl, Bayern's board member for sport, to reinforce the squad after a summer in which he failed to sign Germany playe

Kane hits hat-trick as Bayern Munich destroy Leipzig 6-0 in league opener

Harry Kane scored a hat trick as Bayern Munich started its Bundesliga title defense with a 6-0 demolition of Leipzig. The Bavarian powerhouse dominated with the exception of a 15-minute spell after halftime when Antonio Nusa went close for the visitors on Friday. Nusa, who also had a goal ruled out, served to only rile more goals from Kane, who was supported by the outstanding Michael Olise, who scored two, and Luis Daz, who got the other goal and set up two on his Bundesliga debut. "We wanted to come out with a statement and that's exactly what we done," Kane told Sky TV. "Leipzig are a good side but today we was on top in all areas and we was clinical when we needed to be, so we can enjoy this." Olise broke the deadlock in the 27th minute and Daz had the home fans celebrating again five minutes later when he rifled the ball in off the underside of the crossbar after a well-worked move involving Kane and Serge Gnabry. Gnabry laid the ball off for Daz with his heel. Olise got his

Bayern Munich optimistic Musiala returns before end 2025 after leg fracture

Jamal Musiala is still using crutches after breaking his leg at the Club World Cup but Bayern Munich hopes he'll be back by the end of the year. The 22-year-old attacking midfielder was stretchered off in pain after colliding with Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma as his team lost 2-0 to Paris Saint-Germain in the quarterfinals this month. Jamal still has crutches but the process is very, very positive, Bayern board member for sport Max Eberl said Thursday at an event to present new signing Luis Daz. Eberl added that the club expects Musiala could return around the same time as wing back Alphonso Davies. The Canadian player has been out since sustaining a severe knee ligament injury with his national team in March, but Eberl said he had his first exercises on the field Thursday. So far there have been no complications with both of them. We need to knock on wood that it stays that way and then we obviously hope that they will be available at the end of the year, Eb

Bayern Munich rope in Luis Diaz from Liverpool on 4-year contract

Bayern Munich signed Liverpool winger Luis Daz to a four-year contract on Wednesday in the German champion's biggest deal of the offseason so far. The move balances out Liverpool's heavy spending with a fee reported at 75 million euros ($87 million) by German media, while Bayern dips into the millions it earned at the Club World Cup, a competition Liverpool didn't qualify for. Daz had been with Liverpool since 2022 and scored 17 goals in 50 games across all competitions last season as the club won the Premier League title. From today on I'm part of this lovely family, Diaz said in Spanish in a video message posted on Bayern's social media accounts. Daz leaves amid Isak speculationLiverpool had dismissed talk of the 28-year-old Colombia winger leaving but its approach shifted when he was left out of the squad for a preseason friendly loss to AC Milan on Saturday. Diaz's departure comes in an offseason where Liverpool has spent heavily strengthening a team that won a record-equaling

Musiala says 'no one to blame' for serious leg injury at Club World Cup

Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala says there's no one to blame for the left leg fracture he sustained in a tackle from Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma at the Club World Cup. The Germany star posted an update on Instagram on Wednesday, when he thanked people for their support after he fractured his fibula (bone in the lower leg) during Bayern's loss to PSG in the quarterfinals on Saturday. It's nice to see how the football world comes together in a time like this and I really appreciate it, Musiala said. Musiala was flown back to Munich on Sunday for surgery on the injury that Bayern said was associated with an ankle dislocation. Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer had criticized Donnarumma for his action, suggesting his Italian counterpart didn't necessarily have to go in like that and that he had knowingly risked causing an injury. Bayern board member for sport Max Eberl also criticized Donnarumma, saying there was a big danger something can happen with the goalkeep

Bayern Munich hand last home win for Thomas Müller amid title clebration

Thomas Mller led Bayern Munich's Bundesliga title celebrations after helping the team beat Borussia Mnchengladbach 2-0 in his last home game for the club. After being presented with the trophy, Bayern captain Manuel Neuer gave it to Mller to hoist toward the Munich sky and start the confetti-filled revelry. There was another outpouring of emotion when Harry Kane got his chance to lift the salad bowl it's the England captain's first team trophy after a career of near-misses. Kane was still holding onto the trophy even as Neuer got the customary beer showers underway by dousing Mller after a speech to the crowd. But soon Kane was soaked, too, and he let the trophy out of his grip. Bayern won its record-extending 34th German championship title last weekend. Michael Olise made sure of Saturday's win by scoring one goal and setting up the other for Kane's league-leading 25th of the season to get the party underway in Munich. RELEGATION DECIDED Bochum and Holstein Kiel were relegated

Harry Kane feels 'amazing' after finally winning his first career title

Harry Kane says he feels amazing after finally winning his first career title at the age of 31. After Bayern Munich's Bundesliga win on Sunday, Kane said in an Instagram post on Monday, It just feels sweet to win the title and the first one of my career. Kane had to endure a long wait after a career of runner-up finishes and defeats in finals with Bayern, Tottenham and England. It seemed like an anomaly for a player considered among the world's best forwards. Bayern's 11 Bundesliga wins in a row must have factored in Kane's decision to join the German team from Tottenham in 2023, but his first season in Bavaria coincided with Bayern's first trophyless year since 2012. He was dismayed to be suspended from Bayern's potentially title-clinching game at Leipzig on Saturday, but made his way to the touchline to celebrate with Bayern leading 3-2 in stoppage time. Then Leipzig's Yussef Poulsen equalized with the last kick of the game, postponing Bayern's party. But Bayer Leverkusen's 2-2

Bayern drops points in der Klassiker, Dortmund draw keeps gap at 6

Borussia Dortmund prevented Bayern Munich from going eight points clear in the Bundesliga by fighting back for a 2-2 draw in der Klassiker. Bayern was on course to start thinking of title celebrations as substitutes Serge Gnabry and Raphal Guerreiro both scored within four minutes of each other to cancel out Maximilian Beier's opener for Dortmund after the break. But Dortmund defender Waldemar Anton equalized on a rebound in the 75th after Jonas Urbig saved Serhou Guirassy's acrobatic effort. Harry Kane missed a big chance for Bayern, though he wasn't the only one as Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel had a busy match. A game of missed opportunities, said Thomas Mller after making a rare start for Bayern. The 35-year-old Mller captained the side and was pushed onto the field by teammates before the match to receive fans' applause after the club announced last week that his contract won't be renewed at the end of the season. The draw stopped Bayern from capitalizing on defending cha

Bayern Munich warns Canadian soccer federation over Davies' injury

Bayern Munich is considering legal action against the Canadian soccer federation following Alphonso Davies' serious knee injury in a match of little importance. We're demanding a full investigation into the events from Canada Soccer and expressly reserve the right to take legal action, Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen told the Bild tabloid on Friday. Davies tore a ligament and sustained other damage in his right knee during Canada's 2-1 win over the United States in the third-place decider for the CONCACAF Nations League tournament on Sunday. Davies returned to Munich where the full extent of the injury was determined on Wednesday. The left-back underwent surgery and will be out for several months, Bayern said. The club is alleging that Canadian officials did not provide appropriate care for the player. Sending a clearly injured player with a damaged knee on a 12-hour intercontinental flight without a thorough medical assessment is, in our view, grossly negligent and a

Bundesliga: Bayern held to 1-1 draw at Union Berlin, Dortmund slip to 11th

A mistake by young goalkeeper Jonas Urbig meant Bayern Munich dropped points for the second Bundesliga game in a row with a 1-1 draw at Union Berlin. Bayern seemed on course for victory when Leroy San scored in the 75th minute after Bayern had struggled to break through Union's deep defensive line, but Urbig's error eight minutes later proved costly. Urbig came off his line to deal with a deflected cross which looped high into the air, but he could only palm it to Union striker Benedict Hollerbach, who hit it in low to level the score. Bayern's lead in the Bundesliga over Bayer Leverkusen increased to nine points, but Leverkusen could cut the gap to six with a win Sunday over Stuttgart. Union is 13th. We're not happy with the result but it wasn't a bad performance, Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said. While Bayern has been strong in the Champions League, beating Leverkusen 5-0 over two legs to reach the quarterfinals, its Bundesliga form has dipped. The draw with Union follows a 3-2
