Harry Kane says he left Tottenham for Bayern Munich to compete in the biggest competitions and win trophies. The English striker also discusses José Mourinho’s influence on his development at a press conference ahead of a Champions League match, reports Seneweb.

Harry Kane says he left Tottenham to join Bayern Munich to take the next step in his career and win trophies. The English striker, Tottenham’s all-time leading scorer with 280 goals, said he admired the Bavarian club for its regular presence in major competitions, according to Seneweb.

Kane also credited José Mourinho, his former Tottenham manager from 2019 to 2021, with helping his game develop. He said the Portuguese coach had given him more options and freedom. Aged 33, the England captain now has two Bundesliga titles and a Ballon d’Or, but has yet to win the Champions League.
