Harry Kane Urges Bayern Munich to Strengthen Squad

Harry Kane has voiced concern over Bayern Munich’s thin 25-man squad following their DFL Supercup win against Stuttgart. With Kingsley Coman leaving for Al-Nassr in a €35m deal, Kane called it one of the smallest squads he has played in. Sporting director Christoph Freund also admitted the squad lacks depth, leaving transfer decisions pending.

For the Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich, Harry Kane has voiced concerns about the lack of depth in the current squad. Speaking after Bayern’s DFL Supercup victory over Stuttgart, the England captain described the squad as “probably one of the smallest” he has ever been part of, highlighting that with only 25 professionals available, the team feels “a bit thin.” His remarks came shortly after winger Kingsley Coman departed for Al Nassr in a €35 million deal, further reducing Bayern’s attacking options.

Kane acknowledged that the situation is not in the players’ control, but emphasized that there is still time to strengthen before the summer transfer window closes. The club must now decide whether to bring in reinforcements or place greater trust in its young prospects to cover the season ahead, which includes challenges across three competitions.

Bayern’s sporting director Christoph Freund echoed Kane’s thoughts, admitting that the squad “isn’t the greatest in terms of quantity.” Despite speculation, Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku does not appear to be on the way to Munich. With the new season fast approaching, Bayern face mounting pressure to balance ambition with squad size to sustain their domestic and European campaigns.
