Kane back in London in June?
It is already the crisis in Munich as we can read in the columns of Picture. The German newspaper looks back on the humiliating defeat of the Bavarians against Leipzig in the German Super Cup. There would already be a man under pressure in the locker room of the German Champion: Thomas Tuchel. It is his fifth defeat in 13 matches. His predecessor Julian Nagelsmann only conceded it in his 31st official game. Moreover, last season, Tuchel had the argument that he had only replaced Julian Nagelsmann in March in a half-failed season. This argument has now disappeared, he had time to prepare for this first shock of the year. Inevitably, these stats give ideas to the Bavarian leaders, who will become intransigent with the former coach of Chelsea and PSG. The integration of Harry Kane will perhaps change everything in the coming weeks. But the English striker would already be homesick according to the British tabloids. Whether in the DailyMirror where the Daily Express, we learn that Kane has planned to return to London this season. During his presentation yesterday, he said he will be “soon to be back in the north of the English capital… for the Champions League final at Wembley“. Indeed he assured that he wanted to win all the trophies possible with his new club, he who has a very empty trophy showcase.
A bandage full of rage
What’s making headlines in England is Mohamed Salah’s controversial gesture yesterday during Liverpool’s clash with Chelsea, a match that ended in a one-goal draw. Fifteen minutes from the end, Jürgen Klopp decided to replace Mohamed Salah with the young Harvey Elliott. This surprising choice did not at all help the Egyptian who, very angry, vigorously took off his bandage in his hand to throw it to the ground in anger. The Reds manager quickly wanted to put out the fire after the game, he knows it was going to be intensified in the press. Here are his words:I can understand because Mo would have improved his record if he scored. But it was an intense match for everyone. That’s all I can say, his reaction was totally ok.»
Change for the Nazionale
