Luis Diaz has opened up about his burgeoning partnership with Harry Kane at Bayern Munich, hailing the England captain as both a "machine" and a "gentleman". The Colombian winger, who joined the Bavarian giants to form a lethal attacking trident alongside Kane and Michael Olise, revealed the vital lessons he has picked up from the veteran striker during their short time together in Germany.
Uli Hoeness has claimed that Harry Kane could be worth more than Alexander Isak in the open transfer market, with Brad Friedel telling GOAL that the Bayern Munich striker would represent value for money at £500 million ($662m). That tongue-in-cheek assessment has been delivered as questions continue to be asked of how much longer the prolific England captain will spend at the Allianz Arena.
Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany has confirmed Harry Kane will miss the Bundesliga trip to Freiburg this weekend. The England captain is struggling with an ankle injury, leaving the German side sweating over his fitness for the Champions League clash with Real Madrid.
Manchester United have been told they would be “silly” not to rekindle interest in England captain Harry Kane if exit doors do open up at Bayern Munich. The Bundesliga champions are reluctant to part with their prolific No.9, but concede that big-money offers could force their hand. Kane has previously seen a move to Old Trafford mooted, and fresh transfer talks may be lined up.
Harry Kane is a major doubt for Bayern Munich’s upcoming fixtures after returning from England duty with an ankle knock. The striker missed the Three Lions' friendly against Japan and is now facing a race against time to recover ahead of the Champions League clash against Real Madrid.
Thomas Tuchel has leaped to the defence of his England side’s perceived over-reliance on Harry Kane, comparing the striker’s impact to that of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. The Three Lions fell to a 1-0 friendly defeat against Japan at Wembley on Tuesday, with the captain forced to watch from the sidelines after picking up a minor injury in training.
England's final two games on home soil before the 2026 World Cup were supposed to give Thomas Tuchel's men the perfect send-off for North America. However, instead of being waved off with flowers, the Three Lions left the Wembley pitch to the sound of boos following their 1-0 defeat to Japan on Tuesday, which followed their uninspiring draw against Uruguay four days earlier.
The 12 games of the Thomas Tuchel era have yielded mixed results and performances from England. They remain one of the best sides in international football, even if they haven't played particularly well for extended stretches since the Sir Gareth Southgate era. That said, they are among the favourites to win the 2026 World Cup for several reasons.
The road to the 2026 World Cup is almost over for England. The next time the Three Lions convene, they will do so for two pre-tournament friendlies in the United States, against Costa Rica and New Zealand, before kicking-off their tournament against Croatia on June 17. They will do so as one of the favourites to go all the way, with the pressure on Thomas Tuchel and his players to finally end 60 years of hurt.
It's never easy with the England men's national team. On paper, they should have enough quality, experience and firepower to blow most sides on this planet to smithereens. Then you sit down, watch them and wonder whether they are actually a team of total strangers assembled purely out of spite to mildly annoy the fans who had hoped so much of them. On the basis of their March friendlies, it would be a fair assumption to make.
In light of the growing number of Arsenal players pulling out of the upcoming international match, former England international Gabriel Agbonlahor has called for a clear response from Bayern striker Kane.
Bayern Munich have officially dismissed mounting speculation suggesting they have made a move to sign Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah on a free transfer this summer. The 33-year-old Egyptian international recently confirmed his departure from Anfield, sparking intense rumours about his next destination, but the Bundesliga giants have issued a firm response.
