Harry Kane Warned by Vincent Kompany to Learn German Ahead of Bayern Munich’s New Season
New Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany has issued a language warning to overseas players, including Harry Kane, urging them to learn German for effective communication within the club.
What Happened?
Following Harry Kane’s move from Tottenham Hotspur to Bayern Munich nearly a year ago, the England captain has yet to master German, a fact highlighted during a recent press conference at Euro 2024. Kompany stressed the importance of language skills, especially for effective team communication.
Vincent Kompany’s Directive
Vincent Kompany, who took charge as Bayern Munich’s boss, emphasized the need for all players to gradually learn German. He plans to communicate in multiple languages at the club, including German, French, Dutch, and English, aiming to create a cohesive environment.
Kompany’s Statement
Speaking to reporters, Kompany stated, “For me, it’s very important to be clear. I can explain many things in German – but at the moment all my football terminology is in English. It takes a bit of time before being able to translate everything. Maybe that will change in the next few years.”
Bayern Munich’s Preseason Plans
Bayern Munich kicked off their preseason with preparations in full swing, including friendly matches scheduled in South Korea and the UK later this month. These preparations will include facing Tottenham Hotspur, Kane’s former club.
