Bayern's Club-WM Crusade: Kane Hypes Müller's "Righteous Sendoff" at Bayern
Kane to provide Müller with a 'flawless conclusion' at Bayern Munich - Bayern's Kane set to deliver a flawless conclusion for Müller.
In a laid-back chat with "Absolut Fussball", ace striker Harry Kane reported no troubles regarding motivation for FC Bayern's upcoming Club World Cup adventure. "This tournament's a serious matter for us, and we put in the hard graft for it", the British international stated flat-out. "We treat the Club World Cup just like any other comp.'s business."
The contentious but financially rewarding tournament, swelling to a behemoth 32-team affair, unfurls stateside from June 14 to July 13. Players will feel the squeeze after a season on the rack, a brief breather, and final national team escapades. Besides Bayern, Borussia Dortmund also carry the Bundesliga torch.
Müller's Exit Fueling the Fire
With the looming departure of club legend Thomas Müller, the Bavarians kick things off with an extra fire in their bellies. "We're aiming to end the season on a high note for Müller", Kane declared. "If the Club World Cup final were his swansong match for Bayern Munich, the title'd be a grand send-off for the old boy."
Germany's premier champions enjoy promising odds of clinching the title, as per Kane. "We're among the favorites for sure", he commented. "We've demonstrated this season what kinda team we are. On a good day, we can nail any side on Earth."
