HARRY KANE hit 100 Bayern Munich goals – becoming the fastest in history to reach a century for a club in a top-five Euro league.
The England captain struck in either half of their 4-0 win over Werder Bremen to reach the milestone in just 104 games in all competitions since his 2023 move from Tottenham.
That incredible feat is one quicker than Cristiano Ronaldo and Erling Haaland managed for Real Madrid and Manchester City respectively.
Record-breaker Kane, 32, has been in scintillating form this season – with this double taking his tally to 15 goals in just EIGHT matches.
The first of the two strikes was a composed effort from the penalty spot before he added a third for Bayern with 25 minutes left to play.
Kane left the pitch in the 77th minute to a standing ovation from the Allianz Arena crowd.
Jonathan Tah and Konrad Laimer also struck to help Bayern maintain their 100 per cent start to the Bundesliga season and move five points clear of Borussia Dortmund.
At full-time, Kane said: “It’s crazy for me. It’s an honour to reach 100 goals for this great club.
“That also reflects on my teammates and the coaching staff, who are helping me. It’s great to reach it this quickly. Hopefully to another 100 goals.”
After joining Bayern from Tottenham in a huge £104million move two years ago, Kane scored 44 goals and provided 12 assists in his debut season.
Although the club failed to win the Bundesliga that term, the striker was crowned the league’s top goalscorer.
He achieved a similar tally last season, netting 41 goals and assisting 14 in 51 outings across all competitions.
Despite achieving one of the most prolific records in Europe, Kane failed to reach the top 10 in the Ballon d’Or this week, instead ranking 13th.
The striker’s future in Munich is currently in doubt, with Bayern officials admitting they will be powerless to stop him from leaving next summer.
Kane has a break clause in his deal which means he could move on for £54m at the end of the 2025-26 campaign.
Tottenham will reportedly have priority when it comes to a potential move.
It comes amid talks of a world-record takeover bid from a consortium led by tech entrepreneur Brooklyn Earick.
Despite the links, Kane insists he is happy at Bayern.
He said: “No, I’m not thinking about a Premier League return at the moment. I’m really happy here.
“I have two years left on my contract. I’m enjoying every moment. Bayern is the best place to win trophies, absolutely.”
