Kane, Bayern set sights on Champions League tilt after near-misses
Harry Kane believes this could be the year after they fell agonisingly short in the semi-final against eventual champions PSG.
MUNICH: Bayern Munich have set their sights on the Champions League after recent near-misses, with England captain Harry Kane stating it has to be their year. The German club fell short in the 2022-23 season, losing to eventual champions Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the semi-finals. PSG won 5-4 in the first leg and then drew 1-1 in the second, advancing to the final where they defeated Arsenal on penalties.
Bayern kick off their latest pursuit of the trophy at home against Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt on Thursday. Bayern's coach, Vincent Kompany, and former player Bastian Schweinsteiger believe the team's main obstacle to winning the Champions League is a lack of squad depth. Kompany has made the Champions League their primary goal, alongside Bayern's domestic dominance.
Kane, who has won five trophies with Bayern including two Bundesliga titles and a German Cup, believes luck and injuries could play a significant role in the upcoming season.
