Harry Kane Given New Nickname at Bayern Munich Amid Ballon d’Or Talk

Harry Kane has been given a new nickname at Bayern Munich amid his stellar start to the 25/26 season.

Kane, 32, left Tottenham Hotspur back in the summer of 2023 to join German giants Bayern in a deal worth a reported fee of €100 million plus €10 million bonuses.

Since then, the England captain has scored 103 goals in 106 appearances across all competitions.

So far in the 25/26 season, the 32-year-old has already netted 18 times in just 10 matches.

As a result of his fine run, there are already talks that Kane could be in the running for the 2026 Ballon d'Or, though he would have to continue this kind of form for the remainder of the campaign.

Recently, it emerged that Kane has earned himself a new nickname in Bavaria.

As per the Daily Mail, Kane gets called 'Hat-trick Harry' in Germany.

The report stated: "In Germany, they call him 'Hat-trick Harry' and Kane, who smiles when we mention that nickname, believes that he might just be peaking at 32."

Speaking about his current form and health, Kane stated that he's enjoyed the best start to any season.

The Englishman told the Daily Mail: "It’s the best start to any season I’ve ever had for sure. I just feel really good. I’ve been here in Munich for a couple of years now and everything’s settled off the pitch. My wife and kids are happy and that all contributes.

"Physically, I’m in a good place. Mentally, I’m at that age now where I’ve got loads of experience. And I’m excited because I’m playing in a team that creates loads of chances and I know that if I get chances, I’m going to score."

Touching on what it's like to play for Bayern, Kane said: "It’s such a big club. I wanted to experience something different, a different league and a different culture.

"Bayern are known around Europe every year as one of the best and one of the favourites to win the Champions League. I wanted to test myself at that level and I’ve loved it on and off the pitch. It feels like my second home now. I’m enjoying every moment of it and hopefully it continues."
