'Give the wife a call!' - Harry Kane gets advice on how to display his Bayern Munich hat-trick balls ahead of moving into new home in Germany

In a promotional video for Google's AI bot Bard, Kane playfully requests some ideas on how best to display his rapidly growing collection as he prepares to move into his new home in Bavaria.

The England skipper appears slightly unconvinced by the bot's initial suggestions of making a surround for a mirror or a giant football chandelier, but seems more taken by concept of illuminating the balls with LED lights. Diplomatically, he ends by saying he'll discuss the ideas with his wife.

Kane has been in thunderous form, hitting three hat-tricks in his first four months in Munich. The 30-year-old has rattled in a prolific 21 goals in 15 Bundesliga appearances and bagged a further four in six in the Champions League, breaking several records in the process.

Remarkably, it took Kane just 11 games to beat the number of goals scored by the Bundesliga top goal-scorers from the previous season. His 17th goal of the season came against Heidenheim in early November which meant he'd already eclipsed the 16 goals scored by Chistopher Nkunku and Niclas Fullkrug in 2022-23.

Hoffenheim find themselves in the unenviable position of facing Europe's leading scorer fresh off a mid-season break when they visit the Allianz Arena on Friday night.
