At present, the esteemed Polish striker holds the record for the highest number of goals scored in a single season of the German top-flight – an impressive tally of 41 goals. Few could have imagined surpassing such a remarkable feat, but Kane is firmly in contention.

Although he faces the possibility of missing out on major trophies in his first season at the Allianz Arena, Kane has excelled individually. He has netted an impressive 42 goals in as many appearances, with 35 of those coming in the Bundesliga.

Kane requires six more goals to equal Lewandowski’s record and seven to surpass it. With only three matches remaining, Kane has acknowledged the challenge ahead, stating to Sky Deutschland, “It’s possible, but I have to hurry, I have to score a few goals in the next few weeks. As I said, it’s there, it’s within reach. But it will depend on the last three games.”

Bayern’s upcoming schedule includes two away fixtures against Stuttgart and Hoffenheim, in addition to a home match against Wolfsburg. Kane has the opportunity to chase Lewandowski’s record from the 2020-21 season while also aiming for Champions League success, as Bayern is set to face Real Madrid in the semi-finals.
