Bayern Munich news

Harry Kane has etched his name further into the history books after breaking a long-standing Champions League record previously held by Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard. Despite Bayern Munich falling to a narrow 5-4 defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in a pulsating semi-final first leg, the England captain’s personal landmark provided a silver lining for the German giants.

Luis Enrique has hailed Paris Saint-Germain's breathless 5-4 victory over Bayern Munich as "the best match I've ever been involved in as a coach". The Parc des Princes hosted a historic Champions League semi-final first leg that saw nine goals shared between the European heavyweights, leaving the Spanish tactician both exhausted and exhilarated.

Harry Kane found himself on the receiving end of a verbal volley from Wayne Rooney after the Bayern Munich star offered a bizarre assessment of the defensive displays in a nine-goal Champions League epic. Despite seeing his side ship five goals in a chaotic semi-final first leg against Paris Saint-Germain, the England captain insisted the backlines were "outstanding", prompting a fierce response from Manchester United legend Rooney.

Joshua Kimmich has called for a rule change following Bayern Munich’s 5-4 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final. The flashpoint was the controversial penalty awarded to PSG just before half-time, which Ousmane Dembele converted to make it 3-2 to the home side. "More of an unfortunate decision," Kimmich told Amazon Prime after the match, adding, "It’s just not in the spirit of the game".

Bayern Munich will have to come from behind if they are to reach the Champions League final as they lost out 5-4 to Paris Saint-Germain in the thrilling first leg of their semi-final clash. Harry Kane, Michael Olise, Dayot Upamecano and Luis Diaz all got on the scoresheet for the Bundesliga winners in what proved to be a game that showcased the very best in attacking football.

Harry Kane is considered to be the best No.9 in world football, with former team-mate Paul-Jose M’Poku explaining to GOAL why the Bayern Munich superstar sits above Kylian Mbappe on that list. The former Tottenham academy graduate has also speculated on whether the current England captain could be viewed as the greatest striker of his generation and how a late-career positional change may be on the cards.

Anthony Gordon was once regarded as FC Bayern’s top target. However, it now appears he is merely the best available alternative. Indeed, the club have reportedly identified RB Leipzig’s Yan Diomande as their main target for next summer, according to The Athletic. However, because the club’s hierarchy believes the deal would be too expensive, Newcastle United’s forward Gordon has emerged as the preferred alternative.

Harry Kane could be on the cusp of greatness, if such a title isn't already guaranteed. Bayern Munich will be looking to the England captain to score the goals that will give them the edge over Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-finals, while another Bundesliga title is already wrapped up, the World Cup is fast approaching and he is already in the box seat for the Ballon d'Or. It promises to be a gilded season for the 32-year-old.

Bayern Munich are reportedly keen to secure a swift contract extension with Harry Kane. Sky reports that the England striker's new contract should be wrapped up before the World Cup starts on June 11, providing a massive boost for the Champions League semi-finalists.

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has provided a major update on the futures of Harry Kane and Michael Olise as Bayern Munich prepare for their Champions League semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain. The club legend and current board member made it clear that their key attacking duo remains untouchable despite growing interest from across Europe.

Just like pretty much everyone else on the planet, former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock thoroughly enjoyed Bayern Munich's thrilling Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid. The tie ebbed and flowed for 180 mesmerising minutes before the Bavarians eventually prevailed 6-4 on aggregate, thanks in no small part to Eduardo Camavinga's idiotic dismissal in the closing stages of the second leg.

Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl has admitted that he turned to Pep Guardiola for validation before appointing Vincent Kompany as the club's head coach. Despite initial scepticism surrounding his arrival from relegated Burnley, the Belgian tactician has silenced his critics by delivering back-to-back Bundesliga titles and Champions League progress at the Allianz Arena.
