Why isn’t Harry Kane playing for Bayern Munich against RB Leipzig?

HARRY KANE is the latest English star to ditch the Premier League for foreign shores.

The former Tottenham man has joined Bayern Munich for a massive £104million.

He has been unveiled to some fanfare in Bavaria and has managed to make it in time to be eligible for the DFB Super Cup against RB Leipzig.

But fans are confused as to why Kane is not starting at the Allianz Arena.

Harry Kane is on the bench for Bayern Munich.

Thomas Tuchel named a strong side for the DFB Super Cup, but he has not picked the Englishman in his starting XI.

It is fairly common for players that are newly signed to be left out of the settled starting line-up, even if it raises a few eyebrows.

It is highly expected that Kane will make his debut during this match though, with the striker expected to come off the bench.

Here is Tuchel’s side: Ulreich, Pavard, Upamecano, De Ligt, Davies, Kimmich, Laimer, Musiala, Sane, Gnabry, Tel.
