Kane Back in Training for Bayern
Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane has resumed training with the squad following an ankle injury. According to reports, Kane participated in a full team session before the club's departure to Spain for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid. The England captain missed Bayern's 3-2 Bundesliga victory over Freiburg last weekend due to the knock, which he sustained while on international duty. His return is a significant boost for the German giants as they enter a critical phase of the season.
Upcoming Fixtures and Transfer Updates
The first leg against Real Madrid is scheduled for April 7th, with the return fixture in Munich set for April 15th. Kane has been in phenomenal form this campaign, scoring 48 goals in 40 appearances across all competitions. In the Champions League alone, he has netted 10 times in nine games, putting him at the top of the competition's goalscoring charts.

Club president Florentino Perez is reportedly prepared to sanction a transfer fee of 160 million euros to secure the player's signature.
