Harry Kane will miss Bayern Munich’s Bundesliga match against RB Leipzig next Saturday due to suspension.
The game at Leipzig, in which Bayern can win the Bundesliga title, would see Kane win the first major trophy of his career.
Kane was booked during Bayern’s 3-0 victory against Mainz on Saturday. However, because Bayer Leverkusen also won, beating Augsburg 2-0, the Bavarians have to wait another week to be crowned champions.
“It’s not ideal but we won,” Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said of Kane’s yellow card. “But it is not like a final [next week].”
“We will play 34 games this season and I think [injured] guys like Jamal [Musiala], Alphonso [Davies], Dayot Upamecano and [Hiroki] Ito also have to celebrate the title,” he said
“Every title you have to celebrate it like it’s your first so I don’t think it will make much of a difference for Harry.”
Information from Reuters was used in this report.
“It doesn’t take away a single percent of his contribution this season.”
With 24 league goals this term, the 31-year-old England captain looks set to become the first player to be crowned the league’s top scorer in each of his first two Bundesliga seasons.
“Crazy, crazy decision,” Kane said. “It’s kind of my story that I’ll miss the Leipzig game. But no worries, I’ll celebrate more than anyone else.”
