Harry Kane savours the joy of silverware but says my career is still the same
19/05/2025
Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane does not believe winning his first major trophy helps validate his long career.
The England captain moved to Germany from Tottenham in 2023 but although he won the Golden Boot in his first season he was not able to extend Bayern’s Bundesliga dominance as Bayer Leverkusen won their first title.
However, normal service was resumed as Bayern won a 12th title in 13 years earlier this month to end the 31-year-old’s trophy drought, although Kane does not believe he has proved a point to his critics.
“I think, from my point of view, my career is still the same. I still work to improve,” he told BBC Sport.
“I still try and be better every year. I think maybe from the outside, the perception will now be a little bit different.
“Of course, it was a great feeling for me, and probably a relief as well, just to have that off my back.
“It was almost like a switch went off, and all of a sudden it was just a lot of emotion, a lot of joy.
“Of course, I’m the one in the limelight because of my journey but my journey isn’t just myself. It’s with a lot of my family, a lot of my friends who have been with me.”
