Harry Kane's goal-scoring exploits for Bayern Munich eclipse Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah since he joined the Bavarians from Tottenham. The England captain delivered a stunning 13-minute second-half hat-trick as the Bundesliga champions humiliated RB Leipzig 6-0 on Friday night.
Harry Kane has fired an early warning shot to the Bundesliga with an extraordinary hat-trick in Bayern Munich’s season-opening 6-0 demolition of RB Leipzig. His clinical finishing was on full display as he scored his first goal in the 64th minute, before adding two more in quick succession at the 74th and 77th marks, completing a stunning second-half performance. The match was a ruthless display of Bayern's attacking firepower, with Kane at the heart of it all.
Bayern Munich began their Bundesliga title defence with a 6-0 hammering of RB Leipzig at Allianz Stadium as Harry Kane scored a fantastic hat-trick while Luis Diaz bagged his first league goal for the Bavarians.
RB Leipzig have stepped up their pursuit of Christopher Nkunku from Chelsea as the French attacker is keen on reuniting with his former club this summer. Both Chelsea and Nkunku are looking for a permanent transfer for the player, who has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge this summer. Nkunku also has offers from Bayern Munich and clubs in Italy and England.
Lothar Matthaus questioned Harry Kane’s Bayern claim that the current squad is too small, insisting the striker had ignored the club’s new signings and key players returning from injury.
Xavi Simons has rejected Bayern Munich and Manchester City's interest as the Dutch midfielder only has his eyes on a move to Chelsea this summer. Bayern considered Simons as a perfect replacement for Kingsley Coman, who has joined Al-Nassr, while Manchester City are looking for attacking cover in case Savinho joins Tottenham. The Netherlands international, however, has informed RB Leipzig that he only wants to join Chelsea..
Manchester City have entered the race to sign RB Leipzig’s Xavi Simons, threatening to derail Chelsea’s ongoing pursuit of the Dutch attacker. The Citizens, preparing for Savinho’s likely departure, have made contact with Simons’ camp in an attempt to lure him away. The Blues remain in talks over a £60 million ($80.5m) deal, but City’s late involvement could complicate matters.
Christopher Nkunku has been linked with a surprise return to RB Leipzig as Chelsea continue their push to sign Xavi Simons. The French forward is among several players the Blues have put on the table during negotiations with the Bundesliga side. However, the proposed move is far from straightforward as talks continue between the Premier League and Bundesliga side.
RB Leipzig are reportedly ready to bring Christopher Nkunku back to Germany, as part of a blockbuster deal that would see Xavi Simons join Chelsea in a £60 million ($81m) move. The Bundesliga side have floated the sensational idea of a player-plus-cash swap with Chelsea preparing to move out several players, including Nkunku, before going all-in on their top attacking targets.
