"There are players who demand respect, then there are players who command it; Harry Kane is the latter. The Englishman is in the midst of yet another career defining season, scoring 30 and assisting four more across all competitions in 26 appearances. Past scoring and assisting, Kane has also developed his abilities further down the pitch, often controlling games with passing on the level of prime Andrea Pirlo and fearlessly defending like Fabio Cannavaro."
""A big one," said Laimer (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). "First of all, he's an incredible player. Secondly, he's a big character who's obviously a leader in our team, and who leads by example. When you have players like that who invest so much off the pitch too, all the other players say: 'He's there, he's first, he's doing this again, he's doing that again.' It makes it hard for anyone to do any less.""
"When Harry Kane signed for Bayern back in 2023, there were a few who balked at the idea of signing a 30-year-old striker for €100m. In hindsight, that price tag seems like pennies. Kane has far exceeded his price tag in his two and a half seasons in Munich, and if things continue the way they are, the best may still be yet to come."
Harry Kane commands respect through exceptional all-around play, leadership, and off-pitch influence. He has scored 30 goals and provided four assists across 26 appearances this season. He has expanded his game deeper, controlling matches with passing compared to prime Andrea Pirlo and defending with the fearlessness of Fabio Cannavaro. Teammates recognize his leadership by example and off-pitch investment, which elevates standards across the squad. Bayern Munich paid €100m for Kane in 2023 when he was 30; he has exceeded that valuation in two and a half seasons in Munich and appears to have further potential.
