Harry Kane has revealed his highlight of 2025 as well as his New Year’s “wish”. The Bayern Munich and England striker has lifted his fabled trophy curse, with the Bundesliga title being secured, and is eager to land more major silverware with club and country. There will be plenty of opportunities for him to do just that in 2026, with Champions League and World Cup crowns up for grabs.

Alexi Lalas has praised Giovanni Reyna’s recent surge in playing time and form, calling it “rarified air” for the young midfielder. The former USMNT star and current analyst said this is the context in which Reyna should be judged - consistent, impactful performances - rather than sporadic appearances or distractions away from the field.

Bayern Munich ace Harry Kane admits he has Robert Lewandowski's sensational Bundesliga scoring record in his sights after a prolific start to the 2025-26 campaign with the Bundesliga giants. Lewandowski famously netted an incredible 41 league goals for Bayern back in 2021 to write his name into the history books but Kane, who already has 18 this season, is hoping he can break that record.

Fabio Silva’s nightmare stint at Borussia Dortmund appears destined for a premature conclusion, with the Portuguese forward reportedly in advanced negotiations to return to La Liga this January. Just months after his €27 million summer switch, the former Wolves record signing has admitted defeat in his battle for Bundesliga minutes, sparking a scramble for his signature that includes Real Betis and a host of Italian heavyweights.

Harry Kane has expressed his delight after welcoming Bayern Munich's "best player" Jamal Musiala back into the first team fold after a six-month injury layoff.

The winner of The Best FIFA Men's Player award for 2025 has been announced, with Paris-Saint Germain attacker and Ballon d'Or holder Ousmane Dembele once again scooping the top prize after an exceptional season. The voting for the awards has also now been revealed, showing who the biggest names in the sport picked as their top choices, including Lionel Messi, Harry Kane, Virgil van Dijk, and England manager Thomas Tuchel.

Dayot Upamecano is literally 'on the move' in Munich, but his change of address could signal a major blow to his international suitors. While Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain circle the French defender ahead of the January window, Upamecano’s decision to relocate within the Bavarian capital offers the biggest hint yet that his long-term future lies at the Allianz Arena rather than the Bernabeu or the Parc des Princes.

Borussia Dortmund are preparing to break the bank to secure the long-term future of defensive lynchpin Nico Schlotterbeck, with the club reportedly tabling a historic contract offer that would see him become the highest-paid player at Signal Iduna Park. However, the German international is in no rush to sign, hinting that a final decision on his future will not be made until the summer amid circling interest from European giants.

Timo Werner could be set for a shock exit from European football as a new suitor emerges from the United States to end his Bundesliga nightmare. The former Chelsea and Tottenham forward has emerged as a concrete option for Major League Soccer side San Jose Earthquakes, with veteran coach Bruce Arena driving the move for the RB Leipzig outcast.

Borussia Mönchengladbach head coach Eugen Polanski has praised the development and professionalism of Giovanni Reyna as the American midfielder’s playing time increases. The U.S. international, who joined Gladbach from Borussia Dortmund in the summer, has been gradually integrated into the squad and has featured in 10 matches so far.

Bayern Munich’s hopes of securing the long-term future of Dayot Upamecano have hit a significant stumbling block, with reports emerging that the French defender’s camp is insisting on a massive salary hike and a release clause that could force the German giants into a difficult corner. As the January transfer window approaches, the 'contract poker' at the Allianz Arena is reaching a fever pitch.

Jamal Musiala has returned to first-team training at Bayern Munich after six months out with a fractured fibula.

Alarm bells are ringing loud and clear at Signal Iduna Park as Borussia Dortmund external advisor Matthias Sammer has launched a stinging attack on the club’s culture. The former Ballon d'Or winner has backed Nico Schlotterbeck’s recent brutal assessment of the squad, claiming the Bundesliga giants are suffering from a debilitating 'addiction to harmony' and a distinct lack of genuine leadership.

Anyone that manages to carve out a career for themselves in professional football is ridiculously talented. The standard at the highest level is just so high that it is simply impossible to 'fake it 'til you make it'. However, not everyone is as prodigiously gifted as Lionel Messi or Lamine Yamal. Your average player will require some time to get to grips with the rigours of the elite game.

Barcelona have reportedly identified Borussia Dortmund defender Julian Ryerson as a shock transfer target to bolster their defensive options. The Catalan giants are scouring the market for reinforcements amid growing fears that Manchester City could launch a swoop for Jules Kounde, forcing Hansi Flick to draw up contingency plans for the right-back position.

“Exceptional” Harry Kane is, given his strike rate at Bayern Munich this season, being tipped to break Robert Lewandowski’s record when it comes to most goals scored in a single Bundesliga campaign. England captain Kane has recorded 18 efforts through just 14 games this season, leaving him well on course to better Lewandowski’s tally of 41 from 2020-21.

Jobe Bellingham has been slapped with a ban after being sent off during Borussia Dortmund's draw with Freiburg in the Bundesliga.

The youngster joined the Bundesliga side from Sunderland in the summer after playing a starring role in the Black Cats' promotion.
