Harry Kane reveals feelings about facing Tottenham in pre-season friendly - with Europa League winners heading to Bayern Munich in August

England captain Kane severed career-long ties with Spurs in the summer of 2023. He bid farewell to north London in an effort to bring his infamous trophy drought to a close.

It took until his second season in Germany for Kane to break that curse, as he became a Bundesliga title winner, with Tottenham going on to snap their own as they saw off Manchester United in the Europa League final.

Kane, who is Spurs’ all-time leading goalscorer, is delighted to see his former club back on the trophy trail for the first time since 2008. He will get the chance to congratulate them in person when taking in a friendly date on August 7.

Kane has told his Cleats Club channel of lining up against some familiar faces: “It’s obviously still a few months away yet, but it will be great to see some of the guys again - especially after having a couple of successful seasons each, and just to see how they are getting on. In our stadium, in front of our fans as well, it will be a great match up and hopefully a great game.”

Spurs were first reunited with Kane at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in 2024, as Bayern ran out 3-2 winners in a pre-season contest. The 31-year-old frontman was not on target that day, but did plunder 38 goals in the 2024-25 campaign while claiming a second Bundesliga Golden Boot.
