Harry Kane faces an indefinite spell on the sidelines after aggravating a calf injury during Bayern Munich 1-1 draw with Celtic in the Champions League. The striker, withdrawn at halftime, had already been nursing a knock before the game. Kane has scored 29 goals in 31 appearances this season, including 21 in 22 Bundesliga matches. Bayern progressed to the last 16 despite the draw.
For the foreseeable future, Bayern Munich and England striker Harry Kane will be sidelined after aggravating a calf injury during Bayern's 1-1 Champions League draw with Celtic. The injury, compounded by a pre-existing knock, led to a hematoma, forcing Kane off at halftime. Despite being a doubt before the match due to a facial injury sustained in Bayern's previous Bundesliga draw against Bayer Leverkusen, Kane started the game, hit the crossbar in the first half, and was substituted at the interval.
Bayern, who held a 2-1 lead from the first leg, fell behind to Nicolas Kuhn's second-half goal but secured their place in the last 16 thanks to Alphonso Davies' stoppage-time equalizer. Kane expressed his frustration on social media, stating, “Annoying having to come off last night but hopefully back out there asap!”
The 30-year-old striker has been instrumental for Bayern this season, missing only two of their 22 Bundesliga matches while leading the scoring charts with 21 league goals. Across all competitions, Kane has netted an impressive 29 goals in 31 appearances, underscoring his importance to Vincent Kompany’s side as they continue their pursuit of domestic and European success.
