Kane gets standing ovation on Tottenham return

Harry Kane

Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane was given a standing ovation at former club Tottenham as the German side beat Spurs 3-2 in a pre-season friendly.

Kane came on as a late substitute on his first trip back to the London club who he left to join Bayern last summer in a deal worth £86.4m plus add-ons.

The England captain was applauded when he came on and also when he went on a solo lap of honour at the end of the game.

Kane said he “probably shouldn’t have been playing” as he only returned to training on Friday, having helped England reach the final of Euro 2024, but he “was always going to play 10 minutes and it was good”.

Kane and Eric Dier, who left Tottenham to join Bayern in January, were also given gifts by Spurs prior to kick-off for their services to the club.

Tottenham also introduced new signings Dominic Solanke, Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall to their fans before the game started.

When the action got under way, Dejan Kulusevski put Spurs in front only for goals from Dayot Upamecano, Serge Gnabry and Thomas Muller to give Bayern a 3-1 lead.
