Harry Kane’s choice to leave the Premier League and Tottenham to join Bayern Munich was absolutely wise for Bruno Fernandes. In an interview given to Sunday Timesthe Manchester United captain welcomed the choice of the English striker, who left in 2023 after giving everything to Spurs without ever lifting a single trophy. A frustration that Kane has since erased in Germany, with a Bundesliga title in 2025 and still impressive performances, to the point of establishing himself today as a serious candidate for the Ballon d’Or.

Bruno Fernandes delivered a lucid analysis of the England international’s career, emphasizing the relevance of his departure: “If he had stayed at Tottenham for one or two more seasons, he could have become the top scorer in the history of the Premier League…”before adding: “He chose to join Bayern, a wise decision because he knows he has a great chance of winning trophies there. » The Portuguese, however, qualifies the importance of titles in the evaluation of a player: “we have seen many Ballon d’Or winners who have not won the Champions League… it’s not tennis, you don’t play alone. » A strong position, which further strengthens Kane’s legitimacy in the race for individual distinctions.
