Harry Kane is hoping to lead England to Euro 2024 glory in Germany next summer but admits he is still struggling with the language since joining Bayern Munich in August.<\/p>\n
The England captain left Tottenham for the Allianz Arena in a deal that could be worth \u00a3100million and has already settled into life in Bavaria, scoring three goals in three Bundesliga appearances.<\/p>\n
However, while he seems to already be on the same wavelength as his new team-mates on the pitch, Kane revealed his German lessons have not yet taken off.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt hasn\u2019t really come along any further yet, to be honest,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m due to start lessons when I get back, the teacher was away for a little while.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m fully open to trying to learn the language. I\u2019ve been told it is extremely tough, but I want to take in the culture as much as possible and, even if I get a word here and there, that would be nice.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kane had already been warned that getting to grips with the language would be his biggest challenge, with Lionesses midfielder Georgia Stanway still finding it hard after a year at Bayern.<\/p>\n
I’m fully open to trying to learn the language. I’ve been told it is extremely tough, but I want to take in the culture as much as possible and, even if I get a word here and there, that would be nice.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we\u2019ll have the same German teacher, but I wish him the best of luck with the language,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause, well, I\u2019ve been there for a year now and I\u2019m waiting for that click. The German teacher keeps saying, \u2018it\u2019ll click, it\u2019ll click\u2019 and a year down the line, I\u2019m nowhere near this click.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wish him the best of luck and, hopefully, I\u2019ll be able to get down to the Allianz Arena and watch some games.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe city is lovely. The people are lovely. The German culture is so open and so welcoming and I\u2019m sure he will feel at home straight away.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kane, England and Tottenham\u2019s record goalscorer, linked up with the rest of Gareth Southgate\u2019s squad at St George\u2019s Park ahead of the Euro 2024 qualifier against Ukraine in Wroclaw on Saturday, with a friendly in Scotland to follow.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has felt a little bit different. I\u2019m used to always travelling around Europe now, for me I\u2019m always excited to meet up with the boys, the only difference was flying back rather than driving,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has been great to see everything again and I look forward to another good year leading up to the Euros next summer.\u201d<\/p>\n
