Bayern Munich reportedly "hope" that Tottenham will complete a permanent deal for Joao Palhinha, who does not feature in Vincent Kompany's plans.

Wayne Rooney has delivered his verdict on Harry Kane, hailing him as the finest striker ever to pull on an England shirt but also warning that the Bayern Munich hitman is missing one vital ingredient. Rooney, who once held the nation’s all-time goalscoring record, believes Kane’s unmatched finishing ability makes him the definitive No. 9.

Having bid farewell to Borussia Dortmund earlier this summer, Giovanni Reyna joined fellow Bundesliga side Borussia Monchengladbach in a bid to revive a once promising career and earn his way back into USMNT contention ahead of next year's World Cup.

Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that his dismissal by Bayern Munich was "worse" than the sackings he faced at Chelsea and Real Madrid.

Bayern Munich are prepared to reward Michael Olise with a contract extension just over a year after he arrived from Crystal Palace on a deal that runs until 2029.

Ousmane Dembele’s Ballon d’Or triumph has attracted many deliberations, with Serge Gnabry admitting he feels “a little bit vindicated” after previously declaring the Paris Saint-Germain star was “much better” than Kylian Mbappe.

Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany has revealed how Harry Kane has defied his expectations, while explaining what makes the striker special. Kane has proved to be one of Bayern's best signings in the last decade, breaking multiple records since moving to Germany from Tottenham in the summer of 2023. He has won the Golden Boot award in back-to-back seasons and won his first career title in the form of the Bundesliga last term.

Borussia Dortmund have opened contract talks with Karim Adeyemi after the forward switched representation to super-agent Jorge Mendes. Adeyemi, fresh from stunning long-range goals against Juventus and Wolfsburg, is tied to the German club until 2027, but early negotiations are under way as Dortmund look to secure his long-term future.

Harry Kane’s hat-trick fired Bayern Munich to a record-breaking start in the Bundesliga, but Vincent Kompany was just as keen to highlight the "cautious" rise of teenage winger Lennart Karl.
