It was meant to be a guaranteed trophy for the England captain…
Having drawn a blank on the trophy front with Spurs for so many years, England captain Harry Kane sought the guaranteed offer of trophies with Bayern Munich for the 2023/24 season.
However, despite hitting the ground running on an individual level (he has scored 24 goals in 20 league games), Kane’s Bayern Munich team are in serious danger of missing out on the Bundesliga title for the first time in 12 years.
Ahead of this weekend’s meeting at the BayArena, Leverkusen are 47% likely to deny Bayern Munich in the latest Bundesliga title odds, according to the shortest price of 11/10 for Xabi Alonso’s unbeaten side. Bayern Munich, meanwhile, have a shortest price 1/2 (implied 66% chance).
However, you can still back Bayer Leverkusen at a best price of 6/4 on Ladbrokes, while Bayern are a best 8/13 to win the 2023/24 Bundesliga title on Betway.

Has Harry Kane ever won a trophy in his career?
Harry Kane famously never won a trophy during his 12-year career at Tottenham, coming the closest in the 2019 Champions League final which saw his side lose 2-0 to Liverpool.
Kane also lost in two League Cup finals (losing to Chelsea in 2015 and Manchester City in 2021), while he led England to defeat in the Euro 2020 final against Italy on penalties.
