He worked hard at the weekend: Bayern optimism with Kane! | OneFootball

FC Bayern will play Real Madrid at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday. The record champions are worried about Harry Kane ahead of the game, but now there is an update

Bayern breathed a sigh of relief when Harry Kane joined the England national team. The striker was only supposed to play once and be rested for the first game. That happened, but he dropped out of training immediately before the second game against Japan and was unavailable

He was also absent for Bayern’s game in Freiburg at the weekend, having trained individually on the ergometer beforehand. Around the game in Breisgau, Bayern officials made it clear that the injury was not serious, but that it was not yet possible to make a prognosis for Real

Bayern cautiously optimistic about Kane

Joshua Kimmich did say that he expected Kane to play in Madrid „even in a wheelchair“, but time was still running out for the England striker. The final training session takes place today, Monday, but before then Sky reporter Kerry Hau revealed that Kane was not exactly idle at the weekend

According to him, the Englishman trained individually at Säbener Straße on both days in order to get fit in time for the big clash with Real Madrid. And there is good news: he has survived the strain so far and should be involved in team training today

Nevertheless, there is still no certainty. If Kane feels anything in training or is unable to fully keep up with the workload, then it doesn’t look like he will be starting, to say the least. In general, however, according to Kerry Hau, there is cautious optimism at FC Bayern regarding a starting berth. Whether it will be enough for 90 minutes remains to be seen. It also seems realistic that Kane will cut back again in the hunt for Lewandowski’s Bundesliga goal record against St. Pauli at the weekend in order to be in top form for the second leg.
