 Tottenham vs Bayern Munich – LIVE! Spurs today host Bayern in the second instalment of their pre-season double-header. Ange Postecoglou saw his side beaten by the German giants in Seoul last week and is out for revenge, with Spurs in action for the final time before beginning their Premier League campaign away at Leicester later this month. The game marks the return of one of the London club’s greatest ever players. Harry Kane is with the Bayern squad after his Euro 2024 break and could play some part, coming back to the club with which he made his name and broke scoring records before leaving last summer. Kane will be the subject of tributes before kick-off, alongside fellow former Tottenham star Eric Dier. It promises to be an emotional day but Postecoglou will no doubt be keen to see his side show they are ready for the more testing battles to come.
