The lack of silverware is something that has dogged Kane for years. The Englishman had previously lost six finals, twice with England in UEFA European Championships (2021 and 2024) and three times with Tottenham Hotspur: once in the UEFA Champions League and twice in the EFL Cup.

Even last season with serial winners Bayern, Kane finished trophyless as the Rekordmeister lost the Supercup to Leipzig in his first game for the club and fell short in the Champions League and DFB Cup, before finishing third in the Bundesliga.

This time around, there was to be no disappointment for one of the world's great strikers and Kane's contribution to the Bayern cause during their successful 2024/25 Bundesliga run has been fundamental, with England's record marksman the division's top scorer this season with 25 goals and counting.

"It feels amazing, to be honest," an elated Kane told bundesliga.com after Bayern's 2-0 victory against Borussia Mönchengladbach, a week on from the Bavarian's confirming their 33rd Bundesliga title win. "Obviously it's been a long time coming and a lot of hard work throughout the season. I'm just proud, proud of the boys and proud that my family and kids are here," Bayern's No.9 continued. "It's just a great feeling and I'm looking forward to enjoying the next weeks."

Even more accolades are on the horizon for Kane, with a second successive Bundesliga top scorer's prize now within grasp. The Englishman, who hit 36 Bundesliga goals last term, will also spearhead Bayern's attempt to win the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup in the USA in June.

Kane is only the fifth Englishman to win German football's top prize, after Kevin Keegan, Owen Hargreaves, Omar Richards and current Bayern teammate Eric Dier. The 31-year-olf forward will have the chance to add to his top-flight tally when Bayern travel to Hoffenheim for their final Bundesliga game of the campaign on 17 May.
