Harry Kane is ready for a Bayern Munich UEFA Champions League showdown with Barcelona.
The Bavarians land in Catalonia on October 23, to face off with former boss Hansi Flick, in high-stakes European battle.
The Bundesliga giants are looking to bounce back in their Champions League campaign, after an opening 9-2 win over Dinamo Zagreb, followed by a 1-0 loss at Aston Villa.
That continues the England captain’s strong start to the 2024/25 season with 13 club goals scored so far.
However, this game is a step up, and a chance for Kane to test himself in direct opposition to former Bayern Munich hitman Robert Lewandowski, who is also in flying form in Barcelona.
“Robert is a fantastic striker, one of the best of my generation, it will be a special match. Many of us know him very well”, as per quotes from Diario AS.
“We expect him to be a similar opponent in midweek, Barcelona will want to keep the ball and press high. It will be a tough battle, but we face it with confidence.”
A trip to Barcelona will be the first time Kane has faced La Blaugrana since his Tottenham days where he scored once in two games against them.
