Bundesliga record purchase
Bundesliga record purchaser Harry Kane (30) has drawn a positive conclusion from his early days at FC Bayern. “Everything has been fantastic so far,” said the attacker, who moved from Tottenham Hotspur for 100 million euros, in an interview with “Sports Illustrated“. Kane highlighted the “extreme support” from fans. “I’m looking forward to building on this relationship and getting to know everyone better, but so far it’s been a good start,” said the England captain.
Kane also spoke about possible concerns before his transfer to Munich, which had dragged on for weeks. “I thought about all the circumstances. Ultimately I decided to do this because I want to push myself to get better. That’s the most important thing when you come to a club like Bayern Munich. “I’m on the big stage and I have to perform accordingly,” explained the most expensive purchase in the club’s history.

“But of course there are many factors involved in such a change: I have a young family that is moving to another country. It’s not always easy, but we try to approach it calmly. “I know it was the best decision for me professionally and I think it will be a great experience for all of us,” Kane continued.
In his first five competitive games for FCB, the veteran scored four times and provided one assist. In the Bundesliga top scorers list, they are currently in third place behind Stuttgart attacker Serhou Guirassy (27; eight goals), who started the season brilliantly, and Wolfsburg striker Jonas Wind (24; five goals).
