Harry Kane became the most expensive player in Bayern Munich’s history, when he moved from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2023. Although the move wasn’t a great surprise by the time it was finally completed it had survived meddling executives, prankster journalists and a dramatic late crisis.
Charlie Eccleshare explains, Craig Silcock illustrates.

Its likely there are many people, like me, across the country now with an interest in watching Bayern Munich matches. Hoping and wishing the move comes off for him and he gets some well deserved silverware.

Florentino Perez was tired of dealing with Daniel Levy. Who is a very difficult person to deal with. Both Modric and Bale arrived late to miss preseason training. All thanks to Daniel Levi antics. Clubs when they negotiate transfers, prefer to close deals early. So the player can join the team for preseason training. Levy being Levy prefers to drag negotiations longer than necessary. This delays often disrupt the clubs preparations for the season. Like for ex: Kane missing the German SuperCup for Bayern. Because the transfer deal was closed very late. If Daniel Levy wants 100mil for Kane. Just say pay me a 100mil and we close the deal. But nope I’ll drag the negotiations longer than necessary because I am Daniel Levy.

It's quite funny that HK is kind of the reason that TT got sacked from Chelsea... he scored in the dying minutes of a Spurs Chelsea match, to grab an equaliser, and TT was so mad he publically tried to start a fight with A Conte who was Spurs manager at the time. Chelsea 'new look' didn't work well with the massive reprimand that TT got for bringing the game into disrepute in how he treated Conte.... shortly after that, he was sacked!! Glad he's not holding it against HK!

Daniel Levy vs Uli Hoeneß, immovable object vs unstoppable force
As much as I credit Uli Hoeneß for his past services to FC Bayern, I see him as a complete disaster since he returned to the club in the mid-2010s. Even after his "farewell", he never completely let go of the reins, and many of the problems of the last few years had his signature. Just like this completely unnecessary statement about the transfer.
Such a great fit. Absolute baller of Bayern caliber! Love to see it
