Bayern Munich must act quickly to get Harry Kane in the starting lineup in their crucial first leg of the Champions League quarterfinal against Real Madrid.
Fans and coaching staff are nervous before the trip to the Santiago Bernabeu because the England captain has been dealing with an ankle problem that prevented him from domestic action over the weekend.
With an incredible 48 goals and five assists in just 40 games across all competitions this season, the 32-year-old goal machine has been a revelation for the German powerhouses.
However, his participation in the trip to Madrid is still uncertain after he missed Bayern’s 3-2 victory over Freiburg over the weekend. Kane suffered an ankle injury during the England international break.

However, Kane was able to take part in the team’s last training session, according to Sky Germany as reported by Goal, giving Vincent Kompany’s team a huge boost on Monday. It will soon be decided whether or not Kane will play against Madrid.
Sporting director Max Eberl also offered a glimmer of hope following the weekend’s domestic action, stating: “The physios are working on it. He is constantly on-site and receiving treatment. We believe that it will work out.”
The precise severity of Kane’s injury has remained unclear despite these positive updates, raising the possibility that the Bavarian giants are engaging in a cunning game of poker with their Spanish opposition.
