Indeed, Tottenham delayed Kane’s peak, but this 32-year-old English forward is a class above in the Bundesliga. In the 4th round of this season, Bayern secured a 4-1 away victory over Hoffenheim, with Kane starting and netting a hat-trick. According to German Transfermarkt, the Bundesliga’s historical hat-trick leaderboard shows German legend Gerd Müller leading with 32 hat-tricks, while Kane ranks seventh having achieved 9 hat-tricks in just 67 Bundesliga games. The other nine players in the top ten each took more than 300 games, making Kane’s record truly remarkable and hard to dispute!
