According to calculations, after only half a season, Bayern Munich has recouped about 12% of Harry Kane’s total transfer fee through the sale of shirts with his name printed on them.
The 30-year-old English striker joined Bayern from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer for about 82 million pounds and so far, Harry Kane has had a great start at the German team.
At this time, Kane has scored 26 goals in 23 matches in all competitions for coach Thomas Tuchel’s team, with 8 assists. The England international is leading the Bundesliga top scorer list and the 2023/24 European Golden Shoe.
In addition to his influence on the field, Kane’s iconic number 9 shirt has become the most popular shirt in the club’s 124-year history.
It is said that Bayern sold about 20,000 shirts with Kane’s name on the back in the first week he appeared in Munich. From that time until now, this number has nearly reached the 100,000 mark. At a price of about 100 pounds/piece, Bayern earned 10 million pounds from selling Kane’s shirts after just half a season. As expected, Bayern can sell 100,000 shirts with Kane’s name on the back during the next period of the 2023/24 season.
Kane personally will also pocket 250,000 euros if he scores 40 goals for Bayern this season. Kane has currently contributed to 34 goals for Bayern (26 goals and 8 assists). If he scores 4 more times directly or helps his teammates put their names on the electronic board, Kane’s account will “ting ting”.
Talking about Kane, coach Thomas Tuchel also praised his English student: “Coaching Kane is a gift, a privilege. He is extremely humble, he is the first person on the field every day and Whatever you ask of him, he will do it. Kane doesn’t just score goals every day, he trains well, does what is necessary, shows his qualities. He helps everyone develop. better ability every time I go on the field.”
