Harry Kane made the summer switch from Tottenham Hotspur to Bayern Munich and it's fair to say the move has gone about as well as it could for the striker so far.
The England captain departed his boyhood club at long last earlier this year with his deal at the North London side poised to run out next summer and unwilling to sign a fresh deal.
Rather than risk losing Kane for nothing in just a few months' time, Spurs opted to cash in on their prized asset and agreed a transfer deal with the Bavarian club worth an initial €100m plus another €10m in bonuses, which has become a Bundesliga record fee.

And it's fair to say that the move has gone very well for Kane, who has 22 goals in 18 games in all competitions for Bayern and he sits top of the Bundesliga scoring charts.
Bayern are two points behind Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen, and have booked their place in the knockout stages of the Champions League, winning Group A at a canter as FC Copenhagen, Galatasaray and Manchester United fight it out to join them in the last 16 phase of the competition.
Any issue which anyone faces when they get a new job and involves a move to a different city or country is where they are going to live - and that is exactly the situation Kane has encountered with his switch to Germany.
Kane had previously been living in a hotel following his summer transfer, but now at long last has found a permanent place to live in Bavaria.
According to German publication Bild, Kane is due to move into a villa which was previously occupied by former Bayern defender Lucas Hernandez.
The French international joined Bayern in 2019 from Atletico Madrid, but departed this summer as he returned to his homeland to play for Paris Saint-Germain.
It will no doubt be a weight off the England captain's mind, knowing that he has a permanent abode now established and he can now purely focus on matters on the pitch.
Mind you, having said that, his early form at Bayern certainly does not suggest it has been a big distraction for him.
