Kane says 'it's possible' he'll break Bundesliga season goals record

Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane, who scored both goals in Saturday's 2-1 home win over Eintracht Frankfurt, said it's "possible" he will break the Bundesliga single season goalscoring record.

Text size:

Playing his first season in Germany, Kane has 35 goals in the league from 31 games -- six shy of equalling Robert Lewandowski's record of 41 from the 2020/21 season.

"It's possible, but obviously I have to get a move on," said Kane who has three games left to set a new record.

"I've got to maybe score a few goals next week. It's there, it's in touching distance.

"It depends on the last few games of course. But it was nice to add to it today and score a couple of goals to help the team."

Kane took advantage of a great run from midfielder Konrad Laimer to give Bayern the lead after nine minutes and then added a second-half penalty.

Kane's brace against Frankfurt means he has scored against 16 of the 17 other Bundesliga teams this campaign, only missing out against Freiburg.

The 30-year-old forward now has 42 goals so far this campaign in all competitions, which is his best ever mark in a single season.

Next up is Tuesday's home leg against Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-finals.

"Hopefully I can take that confidence into Tuesday's game," he added.

"It will be a very difficult match, we will have to reproduce the performance against Arsenal (in the quarter-finals) -- and even improve it.

"Real are a great team, the club has a great history in this competition."

The match will be the first time Kane has played in the Champions League semi-finals.

He missed the semis through injury but returned for the final in the 2018-19 season, when Tottenham lost the showpiece match 2-0 to Liverpool.
