Thomas Tuchel has revealed the surprising fact he’s learned about Harry Kane since joining Bayern Munich.
Last summer, Kane swapped Tottenham Hotspur for the Bavarian club in a deal worth a reported fee of £86.4 million.
Since then, the Englishman has scored 44 goals and assisted 11 in 44 appearances across all competitions for Bayern.

Further speaking about Kane’s impact at Bayern, Tuchel said: “We got a big personality in our dressing-room on top of a goalscorer and someone with the ability to handle pressure. But we knew that. He is the captain of England.
“He has brought everything to the team that we could possibly have hoped for. [Against Real] he needs to prove the point and deliver.”
Kane’s England teammate, Jude Bellingham, is one of many dangerous players that Madrid have and could play a key role in the match.

Speaking about the 20-year-old midfielder, Bayern captain Manuel Neuer said: “We all know about Jude’s weaknesses and his strengths. We know he is a player who is able to drag up a whole team with his fighting spirit. For his club, he is playing in a more offensive position … (but) no-one could have expected he could score so many goals.
“Since he came to Real Madrid, he has been like a bomb.”
On Kane, Neuer added: “Harry can be really important. He is able to score with any pass he receives. “We have a striker that makes our rivals be respectful. Not just with his goals but with his passing.
“We know he can make the difference.”
