Harry Kane is set for a showdown between Bayern Munich and Barcelona in the Champions League.
The Bavarians land in Catalonia on October 23 to face their former coach Hansi Flick, in a high-stakes European battle. The Bundesliga giants are looking to bounce back in their Champions League campaign, following a 9-2 win over Dinamo Zagreb, followed by a 1-0 defeat at Aston Villa.
Kane prepared for his trip to Catalonia in ruthless fashion by scoring a hat-trick in the 4-0 Bundesliga win over VfB Stuttgart. The England captain continues the good start to the 2024/25 season with 13 club goals scored so far.
Kane fears Lewandowski
However, this match is a step forward and a chance for Kane to test himself in direct opposition to former Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski, who is also in fine form at Barcelona. “ Robert is a fantastic striker, one of the best of my generation, it will be a special match. Many of us know him very well,” according to Diario AS.
“We expect him to be a formidable opponent in midweek, Barcelona will want to keep the ball and press high. It will be an uphill battle, but we approach it with confidence. » A trip to Barcelona will be Kane’s first time facing the Blaugrana since his days at Tottenham, where he scored once in two games against them.
