Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane continues to rewrite history in Germany, capping another remarkable chapter in his career with a landmark individual honour and a major on-pitch milestone.

On Sunday, the England captain found the back of the net in Bayern’s emphatic 4–0 Bundesliga victory over Heidenheim, a match that also saw him captain the Bavarian giants for the first time.
The goal took Kane to 100 Bundesliga goal contributions, an extraordinary tally of 81 goals and 19 assists in just 78 league appearances underlining his instant and lasting impact since arriving in Germany.
As if that feat was not enough, Kane was also named German Footballing Personality of the Year by respected football publication kicker, rounding off what has been a phenomenal 12 months for the 32-year-old striker.
Long before his move to Bavaria in the summer of 2023, Kane had already cemented his status as one of the world’s elite forwards. His time at Tottenham Hotspur saw him shatter multiple Premier League records and put him firmly on course to surpass Alan Shearer as England’s all-time top scorer. Yet, despite the individual brilliance, one major achievement remained missing — silverware.
That lingering gap played a key role in his decision to leave north London for Bayern Munich, a club synonymous with trophies. Ironically, Kane’s debut season in Germany delivered personal records but no team honours, as Bayer Leverkusen swept the domestic double and Bayern exited the Champions League at the semi-final stage.
The story changed in his second campaign. Kane finally laid his long-running trophy drought to rest by helping Bayern reclaim the Bundesliga title earlier this summer, a moment he has since described as career-defining.
Speaking on his Cleats Club channel while reflecting on 2025, Kane said:
“I think my favourite football moment from 2025 would have to be winning the Bundesliga. Obviously winning my first trophy, team trophy, in my career was an amazing feeling, a special moment for me and my team-mates and all my friends and family as well. It was great to get that one over the line. Had some special celebrations, enjoyed it a lot and helped motivate me to achieve many more things in the years to come.”
The striker, who has already racked up 30 goals and three assists across all competitions this season, also set his sights firmly on the future. When asked about his ambitions for 2026, with Bayern challenging on multiple fronts and England eyeing another major tournament, Kane added:
“My New Year’s wish is to keep improving and hopefully win a few more team trophies, including the World Cup.”
Beyond team success, Kane is also chasing history at club level. He has openly acknowledged that Robert Lewandowski’s legendary 41-goal Bundesliga record is within his sights, especially after a flying start to the 2025–26 season, where he already has 19 league goals.
Addressing the challenge in an interview with Sky Sport Germany, Kane said:
“I think it’s possible, especially with the start I’ve had so far this year. There’s still a long way to go. I need to be able to maintain this level for another four or five months. In football, the hardest thing is to be consistent over a long period. This record is an incredible record and it will be hard to beat, I know that. I always enjoy trying to have these ambitions.”
With records tumbling, trophies finally in his cabinet, and personal honours continuing to roll in, Harry Kane’s Bayern Munich chapter is fast becoming one of the most compelling success stories in modern European football.
