Guardians: “It’s a farewell that’s brewing – the truth is that Harry Kane already outgrew the Spurs a few seasons ago. In our hearts, every fan knew this moment was coming. It’s sad to see him go, but it’s no surprise. He’s 30 and has probably three or four years left at his peak. And he’s done it decently: he hasn’t moved to another English club. Not Manchester City. Or worse, Arsenal or Chelsea. He goes to Bayern. Every Spurs fan should be able to live with that.”
telegraph: “If Kane has a special seal of approval beyond his good eye for goal, it’s his image as a clean man, evident in his dislike of nightclubs and lack of tattoos. To the Bavarians, who consistently talk about work ethics in their values speaking, he fits in perfectly.(…) Whatever your opinion of Kane – you will remember the spectacle that the England captain decided to play in the Bundesliga at the peak of his career.The parallels to Kevin Keegans “Mighty Mouse” years in Hamburg at the end of the seventies are obvious.”
Sky news: “The Three Lions captain joins an illustrious circle of Englanders to play abroad. The forward follows in the footsteps of Jimmy Greaves, Kevin Keegan, David Beckham and Gary Lineker.”
The Sun: “IN A HARRY (pun on ‘In a hurry’) – Harry Kane signs with Bayern Munich and could make his debut TODAY and lift the first trophy after the £104m transfer.”
TheMirror: “Harry Kane photographed in Germany as England captain puts the finishing touches on Bayern Munich transfer.”
TheTimes: “Kane chooses Bayern – and could win his first trophy today.”
The Independent: “Harry Kane could even make his debut in the German Supercup final for the Bundesliga champions. (…) It’s an honor to be Bayern’s number nine, succeeding Gerd Müller, Jürgen Klinsmann and Robert Lewandowski, the player who he is most directly replacing. That will do Kane good, especially as one of the very few English players going abroad.”
