Harry Kane Not Playing Against Mainz

Harry Kane is set to return to Bayern Munich next week following recovery from a muscle injury sustained during a Bundesliga match against Borussia Dortmund on November 30. Coach Vincent Kompany confirmed that Kane would miss the upcoming game against Mainz but expressed optimism for his return in the match against Leipzig on December 20, noting that Kane's recovery has gone well. Despite his absence, Bayern has managed to maintain a strong offense, scoring nine goals in their last two matches. Kane has been prolific this season, netting 20 goals in 19 games. While the team has coped without him, his return is anticipated to significantly bolster their lineup. The coaching staff remains focused on the immediate match against Mainz, aiming to continue their scoring momentum.
