From the source

Harry Kane’s Ballon d’Or win reverberated around the world of football as the 33-year-old became the first Englishman to win the Ballon d’Or in over twenty years and the first Bundesliga player to win it in over 45 years.

Bayern Munich did their part in helping spread that reverberation, including a celebration of Kane’s achievement ahead of their home match against Borussia Dortmund, and openly demonstrated their pride at having a Ballon d’Or winner at the club.

And wouldn’t you know it, Kane feels the same way about Bayern: “I’m extremely proud to be a Bayern player,” the England captain said during the celebration in the Allianz Arena (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
