Harry Kane believes winning trophies with Bayern will boost his chances of winning a Ballon d’Or, as Leo Messi is on course to win the prize in 2023.
The England international believes he can establish himself as a bona fide Ballon d’Or contender – with Lionel Messi the big favorite to win it in 2023 – after moving to the German champions for a whopping £100million sterling. Kane believes the transfer opened up opportunities for him for team success and personal recognition and admits it was one of the factors that motivated him to seek a new challenge.
“If you win your league and the Champions League, and obviously the European Championship next summer for England…as we’ve seen with the Ballon d’Or, you have to win team trophies to achieve it »did he declare.

” If I score goals and we win trophies it will be in question, but that’s not really what I’m focusing on right now. I’ve always said that I didn’t want to retire feeling like I could have done more. This played an important role in my decision to come to Bayern. You want to make sure you’ve pushed your limits,” he added.
