Serge Gnabry looks rejuvenated under head coach Vincent Kompany's tutelage, as the Bayern Munich superstar has become an integral player for the club just weeks after he was linked with an exit. The German international has explained the reasons behind his and Bayern's blistering start to the season and revealed two key aspects Kompany is "obsessed" over.
Bayern Munich reportedly "hope" that Tottenham will complete a permanent deal for Joao Palhinha, who does not feature in Vincent Kompany's plans. The Portuguese midfielder arrived in Germany from Fulham with high hopes, but his time under the Belgian manager has been nothing short of a disaster. Out of favour and out of his Kompany's plans, Bayern now want rid, and Spurs could be the perfect escape route.
Bayern Munich star Serge Gnabry revealed a rare quality that Harry Kane brings to Vincent Kompany's side. The striker is proving unstoppable in Bavaria. The England captain struck yet another hat-trick in Bayern Munichâs 4â1 demolition of Hoffenheim, his second treble of the Bundesliga campaign and ninth since landing in Germany.
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 nationâs all-time goalscoring record, believes Kaneâs unmatched finishing ability makes him the definitive No. 9. Yet the former Manchester United legend also suggested that the 31-year-old lacks a certain streak of nastiness that defined Rooneyâs own career.
Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that his dismissal by Bayern Munich was "worse" than the sackings he faced at Chelsea and Real Madrid. The Italian coach says it was a mistake against Paris Saint-Germain that saw him given his walking papers just a month into the 2017-18 season. The legendary manager reflected on the disappointing period in an upcoming autobiography.
Bayern Munich legend Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has admitted he still regrets missing out on signing Florian Wirtz, insisting the German star "would be better off at Bayern than at Liverpool". The former executive also reflected on failed attempts for Nick Woltemade after their public pursuit of the striker ended in him joining Newcastle from Stuttgart.
Former Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen has named ex-Tottenham team-mate Harry Kane in his dream five-a-side team. The Dane left Old Trafford following the expiration of his contract this summer before joining Wolfsburg on a free transfer. Now, he has revealed some ex-Spurs stars would make up all of his ideal smaller team.
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. The Frenchman has been phenomenal ever since his switch to the Allianz Arena, and the Bavarian giants are reportedly adamant on wasting no time to tie down their superstar with a renewal.
Ousmane Dembeleâs Ballon dâOr triumph has attracted many deliberations, with Serge Gnabry admitting he feels âa little bit vindicatedâ after previously declaring the Paris Saint-Germain star was âmuch betterâ than Kylian Mbappe. The Bayern Munich winger praised Dembeleâs rare two-footed ability, while also acknowledging the Real Madrid forward's world-class pedigree.
Harry Kaneâs 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. The 17-year-old became Bayernâs second-youngest Bundesliga starter and marked the occasion with an assist for Kane, as Kompany defended his gradual approach to nurturing academy talent.
Thomas Frank has confirmed that he would love Tottenham to re-sign Harry Kane from Bayern Munich. The England captain departed north London in 2023 and has won the Bundesliga in Germany, but Frank has now confirmed that he would be more than willing to welcome him back with open arms, should the opportunity arise.
Harry Kane's return to Tottenham is reportedly not as 'fanciful' as many would believe despite being happy at Bayern Munich. The 32-year-old is said to have a ÂŁ56.7 million release clause that could come into effect at the end of the season. And there are 'fears' in Germany that the England international could leave the Bundesliga giants in 2026.
Lennart Karl has faced his first significant criticism after making his maiden Bundesliga start for Bayern Munich. The 17-year-old wonderkid's performance in Die Roten's 4-1 victory over Hoffenheim last Saturday raised a few eyebrows, particularly from former Bayern winger Mario Basler, who was not fully satisfied by Karl's outing as a starter under Vincent Kompany.
Michael Olise is one of Karl-Heinz Rummenigge's favourite players ever, with the Bayern Munich sensation paired with club legends Arjen Robben, Franck Ribery and Luca Toni. Olise has become among the best players in the world since his sensational switch from Crystal Palace to Bavaria in 2024. A phenomenal debut season at the Allianz Arena was rewarded with a Ballon d'Or nomination this year.
Dayot Upamecano has reignited his dream of joining Real Madrid, telling his agent to push for a Bernabeu move when his Bayern Munich deal runs out in 2026. Faced with a repeat of the David Alaba transfer to the Spanish giants, the Bundesliga champions now face a familiar dilemma - meet his demands, sell early, or risk losing another cornerstone for free.
The Ballon d'Or. Love it or loathe it, it's the award every footballer in the world dreams of one day winning. And now, after a memorable 2024-25 campaign, the winner of the 2025 Golden Ball has been announced: Ousmane Dembele.
England captain and Bayern Munich superstar Harry Kane has been placed 13th on the Ballon d'Or standings, and fans are furious with the disgraceful ranking. There was also some outrage that Chelsea' Cole Palmer finished ahead of Kane despite having a forgettable 2024-25 Premier League season, which was covered up by a good Club World Cup campaign.
Harry Kane admits that an NFL crossover remains âin the back of my mindâ, but says a move into American football remains âa long way awayâ. The prolific Bayern Munich and England striker has never hidden the fact that he would like to test himself as a placekicker. There is, however, plenty left for him to achieve in his sport of choice before considering any switch into another.
Harry Kane could win the Ballon d'Or at Bayern Munich if he leads them to Champions League glory, according to the club legend Lothar Matthaus. The German icon explained that he is most impressed by the striker's "playmaker" assists, not just his goals, and urged him to finish his career in the Bundesliga.
The terms of a âsecretâ release clause in Harry Kaneâs contract at Bayern Munich have been revealed, with it possible that the former Tottenham striker could return to the Premier League in 2026. In order for that to happen, two key conditions must be met - with any suitors in English football likely to be keeping a close eye on events in Germany.
Bayern Munich icon Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has backed Thomas Muller's MLS move, suggesting it's the perfect preparation for a future leadership role at the German club. The board member believes Muller "did the right thing" by signing for Vancouver Whitecaps in the summer and hinted that the door is open for the 36-year-old to return to Munich in an off-field capacity.
Harry Kane is on a remarkable run at Bayern Munich as he netted his second hat-trick of the season against Hoffenheim. His consistency, sharpness in front of goal and ability to perform in crucial moments have made him the focal point of Bayernâs attack, earning admiration from team-mate Serge Gnabry, who calls him âtruly amazingâ and insists that for Kane, âthe skyâs the limit.â
GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave the comforts of Great Britain in search of a better footballing life elsewhere. The Premier League is still obviously one of the world's most entertaining divisions and the Championship can prove fantastic for development, but there are more options out there.
Bayern Munich's stunning appointment of Pep Guardiola in 2013 was a "masterpiece of discretion," according to former CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. He has now revealed how the deal was kept secret even from the club's sporting director and was finalised when Uli Hoeness flew to New York to get the contract signed.
Robert Lewandowski asked to leave Bayern Munich "every year" as he grew frustrated with the lack of Champions League success with the German club, according to Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. The former Bayern CEO reveals, Lewandowski's desire to win the European crown had him itching for a move away, before the club finally delivered on his objective.
Harry Kane broke another Bundesliga record when scoring two penalties in Bayern Munichâs crushing victory over Hoffenheim. England captain Kane netted a hat-trick in that contest - his second of the 2025-26 campaign - with a couple of efforts coming from the spot.
