I Can’t Believe Kane Chose Bayern Over Being The All-Time EPL Goalscorer – Owen

England legend Michael Owen has said that Harry Kane was crazy to pull his kids out of school and go trophy-chasing at Bayern Munich. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, it was absolutely nuts for Kane to decide to join Bayern Munich just when he was about to become the all-time Premier League goal scorer as a Tottenham player.

He added that the fact that Spurs won the Europa League last season means that the English striker could’ve finally won a trophy with Spurs as well.

His words, “Harry Kane is just lethal; he’s a brilliant finisher. I disagreed with him going to Germany; I was outspoken about that. I still think he was nuts.

You’re on the verge of being the all-time Premier League goal scorer, you’ve got kids that are all in school. I mean, I just couldn’t see it. I don’t see it.

If you’re that desperate to win something, then do another year and then go. It’s like if you go up and move to Celtic and win the league, you win every year, but there’s no great achievement in that.

A great achievement would have been being the top goal scorer ever in the Premier League. That would have been unbelievable, and he could have won things along the way.”

WOW.
