England captain Harry Kane has once again etched his name into the football history books, achieving an unprecedented milestone in Bayern Munich’s dominant 4-0 victory over Werder Bremen. The prolific striker became the fastest player across Europe’s top five leagues to net 100 goals for a single club, reaching the century mark in an astonishing 104 appearances.
Kane’s two-goal haul against Bremen propelled his season tally to an incredible 15 goals in just 10 games across all competitions. This remarkable pace has not only endeared him to the Bayern faithful but has also firmly established him as one of the most lethal finishers in modern football.
Outpacing Legends: Kane’s Record-Breaking Feat
The significance of Kane’s achievement cannot be overstated. Never before in the modern era, spanning the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, and Ligue 1, has a striker reached 100 goals for one club in such a short timeframe. He surpassed the previous joint record held by two of football’s titans: Cristiano Ronaldo, who took 105 games to reach 100 goals for Real Madrid, and Erling Haaland, who matched that feat for Manchester City.
“It’s crazy even for me,” Kane admitted to Sky Germany. “It’s an honour to reach 100 goals for this great club. To do it so quickly, I’m very proud of that. Hopefully, I can reach another 100 as soon as possible.”
Chasing Lewandowski: A Bundesliga Record in Sight
With 10 goals in Bayern’s first five Bundesliga matches, Kane is now firmly setting his sights on another monumental record: Robert Lewandowski’s single-season Bundesliga record of 41 goals, set during the 2020-21 campaign. When asked if he aims to exceed Lewandowski’s total, Kane’s response was a resounding “definitely.”
“I’ve scored 10 goals in five games,” he continued. “If I keep going like this, it’s certainly possible. Every season is a marathon. We’ve started well, we’re doing well, but of course, a lot can happen, and we have to be prepared for anything.”
