Kane breaks Klose's record.

Harry Kane became the player with the most goals in his first eight Bundesliga games for Bayern, surpassing Miroslav Klose and Luca Toni.

On the evening of October 21st, Kane scored a goal in Bayern's 3-1 victory over Mainz in round 8. The English striker set a club record with nine goals in his first eight Bundesliga matches. Miroslav Klose and Luca Toni share the previous record, with eight goals in their first eight games.

In the Bundesliga, only three players needed fewer games to reach Kane's goal tally: Gert Dorfel (Hamburg, seven games), Paco Alcacer (Dortmund, seven games), and Erling Haaland (Dortmund, six games).

Kane joined Bayern Munich last summer for a Bundesliga record fee of $105 million. This figure does not include add-ons. After 11 appearances for his new club in all competitions, Kane has scored 10 goals. He is currently second in the 2023-2024 Bundesliga top scorer race with nine goals, five goals behind leader Serhou Guirassy (Stuttgart).

The 3-1 victory over Mainz also brought a new record for Thomas Muller, who became the player with the most wins in Bundesliga history with 323 wins for Bayern. Muller surpassed the previous record held by his teammate Manuel Neuer, who had 322 wins with Bayern and Schalke.

In the match on October 21st, Kim Min Jae completed all 102 passes accurately. The South Korean center-back became the first player to have over 100 passes and achieve 100% accuracy in a single match in the top five European leagues since February 26th, 2022 (Aymeric Laporte of Man City with 110 passes).

Bayern currently sit third in the Bundesliga with 20 points, after six wins and two draws. Leverkusen lead with two points more, while Stuttgart are second with 21 points. Bayern drew their last two matches against Leverkusen and fifth-placed Leipzig.
