Shortly before his FC Bayern’s Supercup duel against RB Leipzig, Thomas Tuchel spoke about Harry Kane’s commitment – and above all he was relieved.

Only a few hours after his official commitment, Harry Kane’s name was on the match report sheet for the Supercup duel between champions Bayern Munich and cup winners RB Leipzig on Saturday evening. Thomas Tuchel did not want to order his dream striker into the starting XI – the past few hours, which began with a long wait at London Airport, were too exhausting.
“Delay, delay, landed late, medical check-up, sign all the contracts – he only got to bed far, far after midnight,” said Tuchel in an interview with Sat.1. The stressful arrival on Friday evening was followed by a marathon to get to know each other on Säbener Strasse, “new training ground, 50 new faces again,” said Tuchel. However, it is firmly planned to give Kane a few minutes of play in the Supercup.
We got the England captain out of the Premier League.
Basically, Tuchel was not only pleased, “the relief is greater” that the tough transfer poker has come to a successful conclusion. “It wasn’t easy until the end. It’s a tradition with Tottenham players, it’s not easy to get them out of there.” Basically, the 49-year-old spoke of “sensational news, not just for us as a club but for the Bundesliga. We are super happy and super grateful that everyone worked late into the night.”
Kane’s commitment is “a statement”: “We got the captain of the English national team out of the Premier League.” Now he should score goals and win titles in the Bundesliga – preferably on Saturday evening.
