From the source
The debate over who deserves to be considered Bayern Munich’s greatest modern striker will inevitably include Robert Lewandowski and Harry Kane. However, former Bayern defender Christian Ziege believes there is already a clear winner, and he does not think Kane needs to lift the Champions League trophy to settle the argument.
Ziege believes Kane has already surpassed Lewandowski in terms of his overall contribution to Bayern Munich, pointing to the England captain’s extraordinary work rate, creativity, and willingness to bring teammates into the game.
While Lewandowski was a phenomenal goalscorer who established an incredible legacy in Munich, Ziege argues that Kane offers considerably more than simply putting the ball in the back of the net.
