Bayern Munich captain Manuel Neuer has heaped praise on Harry Kane, describing him as a "weapon" essential to the team. His comments come as Kane extended his remarkable penalty streak to 26 successful conversions, reaffirming his position as one of the most reliable and lethal strikers in world football.

In recent statements, Neuer highlighted Kane’s influence on Bayern’s attack, emphasizing his ability to create space, generate opportunities, and finish with precision. He also stressed the importance of keeping the English striker in top form, considering him crucial for the club’s aspirations this season.

Kane’s Impact on Bayern Munich

Since joining Bayern Munich from Tottenham Hotspur, Harry Kane has proven to be a strategic addition to the squad. "We need Harry, and we know it. He’s not just fantastic from the penalty spot; he’s lethal in the box," Neuer said. "Many of the chances we create are thanks to his presence, even when he seems disconnected from the game."

Kane’s penalty streak extends beyond statistics, symbolizing a level of confidence and efficiency that has bolstered Bayern’s performance in crucial moments. Neuer pointed to his penalty goal against Borussia Mönchengladbach as a testament to Kane’s consistency and ability to shine under pressure.
