FC Bayern recently signed Harry Kane, his dream player, for around 100 million euros. Ex-national player Stefan Kuntz sees the transfer as “a clear sign”.
“Both from himself that he has decided on a new, not so easy path. As well as for the club bosses, who have made a clear statement worldwide about the power and charisma Bayern still have,” said Kuntz in an interview with “ran”.
In the coming games, the 30-year-old needs “a bit of luck and the new players have to get him into the final positions,” said the 1996 European champion.
Kane should close the gap at FC Bayern that Robert Lewandowski left when he left FC Barcelona in the summer of 2022.
“The 100 million for Kane is a utopian sum, but unfortunately that’s the way business is now. And Bayern also have some income from the departures,” Kuntz commented on the deal.
Four battle between FC Bayern, BVB, RB Leipzig and Bayer?
Nevertheless, the Turkish national coach is expecting a close fight for the title again, “because Bayern doesn’t seem solid to me yet. At the same time, other teams are in good form, above all Leipzig, Dortmund and Leverkusen”. “Although you have to see at Bayer whether they get more consistency in their performances this season,” said the 60-year-old at the same time.
However, the TV expert does not believe that BVB will stumble after the dramatic season finale and the missed championship.
“I know that the media likes to write about such things, but in my opinion that doesn’t matter at all. It will be important whether they still have the opportunity to become champions five games before the end. And then everything will be decided in the last ones anyway matchdays, depending on who has the better nerves,” said Kuntz.
