A full season (and zero trophies) later, Kane has broken a host of incredible records<\/a> at Bayern while establishing himself as their new reliable goalscorer. The England captain ended the Bundesliga campaign with 36 goals and eight assists in 32 appereances, claiming Kicker\u2019s \u201cTorj\u00e4gerkanone\u201d award as the league\u2019s top-scorer.<\/p>\n
