Harry Kane has been in scintillating form since his blockbuster move from Tottenham to Bayern Munich in the summer, but that is not all about his move to Germany.
While the Englishman has been making quite an impact at the club, the Bundesliga giants are on their way to making massive sales of their star striker shirt sales record.
Kane joined Bayern Munich for a record deal of €100 million (£87m/$109m) during the summer window after spending all his life at Premier League side Tottenham.
The former Spurs man already adapted to life at Bayern, scoring three career hattricks at the club and also a record-breaking 21 goals in just 16 appearances for the club.
In the weekend that Harry Kane completed his move to Bayern Munich, the club saw massive sales of No.9 with his name on it which amounted to 20,000.
The Bundesliga giants had their best day ever on the front of the general sale when Kane was announced, surpassing their previous record following their Champions League victory in 2020 – that achievement stood alone as a record.
To put this into perspective, no player in Bayern’s history has ever achieved those numbers, and Kane is likely to shatter those records following his good start at the club.
The Bundesliga champions announced revenue of €110m (£96m/$120m) from merchandising for the 2022-23 season, and these figures will surely rise now that they have Kane around.
