Harry Kane coming back to Tottenham… for pre-season friendly against his Bayern Munich a week before Prem opener
HARRY KANE is coming back to Tottenham.
But, unfortunately for Spurs fans, it will be for one night only.
The England captain is set to take part in Bayern Munich’s friendly against his old club at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday August 10 – the week before the new Premier League season.
Spurs’ record-scorer Kane, 30, was sold to Bayern for £104million in August and has blasted 37 goals in 35 games for the Bavarian giants.
The hosting of Bayern – in an exhibition dubbed the Visit Malta Cup – could be the second time Spurs face the Bundesliga side in a matter of days.
It is expected the pair will play each other in South Korea as part of the Coupang Play Series tournament on August 2 – though that has yet to be confirmed.
But if England go deep in Euro 2024, Kane would likely still be on holiday for that clash on the other side of the world.
Another familiar face coming back to Tottenham for the home friendly is Eric Dier, whose January loan to Bayern is to be made permanent in the summer.
Kane did not play in either of England’s friendlies against Brazil and Belgium at Wembley in the last week due to an ankle injury.

But he has returned to Bayern training and is expected to be fit for Saturday’s powderkeg clash with Borussia Dortmund.
Kane hit a hat-trick in the reverse fixture earlier this season – becoming the first player to score a treble on his Der Klassiker debut.
Despite breaking numerous other scoring records this term, Kane looks set to miss out on the Bundelisga title as Bayern are ten points off table-topping Bayer Leverkusen with eight games to go.
Kane will soon be back in North London with Munich going to Arsenal for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on April 9.
