Ahead of tonight’s Champions League clash against Chelsea, Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane has disclosed that he always brings out his best any time he faces the Blues.
Kane faced London rivals Chelsea 22 times in all competitions with Tottenham, winning seven times and scoring eight goals, before moving to Bayern in 2023.
Kane says Chelsea fans’ dislike of him only makes him more motivated to torment them with Bayern Munich.
“The rivalry was a good rivalry, especially early in my Tottenham career in the (Mauricio) Pochettino era. We had a lot of good games, tough games against each other,” Kane said.
“I think playing against Premier League opposition there’s always a little more expectation around the game. Maybe the Chelsea fans don’t like me as much and when we play Arsenal, maybe the Arsenal fans don’t like me as much.
“That makes me want to play better, that motivates me. There will be some familiar faces – all those things added together brings a little something special.”
