Harry Kane wins first major trophy as Bayern Munich clinch Bundesliga

After a 15-year wait and six final defeats, Harry Kane has finally won his first major trophy.

The England captain watched from the sidelines on Sunday as Bayer Leverkusen's 2-2 draw with Freiburg handed Bayern Munich their 34th Bundesliga crown — and Kane, at last, his long-coveted winner’s medal.

Suspended for Bayern’s clash against RB Leipzig due to yellow card accumulation, Kane watched the drama unfold alongside team-mates Eric Dier and Thomas Müller.

When Leverkusen failed to win, Bayern were crowned champions — and Kane’s reaction was pure joy, captured singing "We are the champions" in a celebratory video with team-mates.

“It’s kind of my story that I’ll miss the Leipzig game,” Kane joked earlier. “But no worries, I’ll celebrate more than anyone else.”

And celebrate he did. For a player once mocked for having more goals than glory, this title is deeply personal.

A career of brilliance, finally rewarded

Kane's path to this moment has been anything but smooth. From loan spells at Millwall, Leicester and Norwich, to a trophyless 14-year tenure at Tottenham Hotspur, his scoring record — 213 Premier League goals, 280 in all for Spurs — was unmatched, but always shadowed by the label of "never won anything."
