German media make their feelings clear on Harry Kane after Bayern Munich's draw with rivals Bayer Leverkusen

The German press have been brutally honest about Harry Kane's performance for Bayern Munich in the goalless draw against Bayer Leverkusen.

Kane moved to the Bundesliga side in the summer of 2023 after his long association with boyhood club Tottenham Hotspur came to a conclusion.

The striker had a year left to run on his Spurs deal and had not penned fresh terms at the North London club, who opted to cash in on him rather than risk him leaving for nothing 12 months later.

Kane moved to Bayern for €110m after scoring 280 goals in 435 games for Spurs across all competitions.

The England skipper - who is the record goalscorer for the Three Lions with 69 strikes in 103 international caps - has scored 73 goals in 75 games across all competitions for the Allianz Arena side following his switch to Germany.

Last season, Bayer Leverkusen under former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso won the club's first ever Bundesliga title.

This campaign, Bayern have recovered and are currently eight points ahead of Alonso's side, who are on the backfoot compared to the Bavarian outfit as they attempt to defend their crown.

The game saw Bayern fail to register a shot on target in the first half, which is the first time this has happened in the Bundesliga since records commenced.

And German newspaper Bild made its feelings clear on Kane's performance with its player ratings.

Its scores range from the best of one to a worst of six - with Kane and fellow forwards Michael Olise and Kingsley Coman being given a five, which were the worst marks handed out by the publication of the encounter.

Despite the perceived poor evening at the office for Kane, Bayern are a step closer to regaining their Bundesliga title, which would be the first trophy of the striker's career.

Bayern boss Vincent Kompany said: "We're not eight points ahead by chance. We've already scored I think more than 100 goals this season [in all competitions].

"OK, Leverkusen today earned the right to play and put us under a lot of pressure - but if we don't show mentality to block shots, crosses, defend as a team with Harry and Jamal after a tough battle in Glasgow [against Celtic in the Champions League] three days ago, then we'd have left this place more disappointed.

"We'll definitely learn from this game, but we take the result and move on."

And taking to Instagram, Kane himself said: "If you can’t be at your best then don’t lose! Clean sheet and a point and we move on!"
