Former England defender Stephen Warnock, speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, said: “Harry Kane is an exceptional professional.

“One thing we know about Kane is he’s never had blistering pace, his game is thought in the mind, he sees space and senses where the ball might drop – he is an intelligent footballer.”

This summer there were calls for Kane, England’s all-time record goalscorer, to be dropped during the run to the Euro 2024 final.

Warnock continued: “He will prove people wrong for the next couple of years. People are going to talk about it [his performances for England at Euro 2024]. It was a bad Euros for him.

“It didn’t go well and I think there was a number of factors; an injury he picked up in the late stages of the Bundesliga, the style of play England had, or, the wingers he was playing with didn’t complement him.

“He will score goals at Bayern Munich as he suits the way they play. The one thing about Vincent Kompany’s teams is they do create so many opportunities.”

Kane scored 44 goals in 45 games for Bayern last season. He recently marked his 100th England cap with two goals against Finland.

“He will be involved in 50 goals this season with goals and assists, but he will still get questioned about his England position,” added Warnock.

“I don’t know why people want to question him, he is still phenomenal.”

For all Kane’s goals – 417 for club and country now – he has yet to win a major trophy.

Bayern failed to win the Bundesliga for the first time in 12 years last season.

He has also lost two European Championship finals with England and a Champions League final with Tottenham.

Former Bayern and England midfielder Owen Hargreaves, on TNT Sports, said: “He played to the level you’d expect [last season]. The other players didn’t.

“Harry is going to win trophies – the only question is which ones.”
