Kane & Bayern Stars to Miss Supercup Kick-off
10 Aug
Summary
- Key Bayern players Harry Kane, Olise, and Upamecano may start on the bench.
- The trio returns late from international duty with limited training time.
- Bayern faces rivals Dortmund in the Supercup on August 22nd.

The upcoming Franz Beckenbauer Supercup on August 22nd may see FC Bayern without several key players, including star striker Harry Kane. Reports suggest Kane, along with Michael Olise and Dayot Upamecano, will likely begin the match on the bench. This decision stems from their anticipated late return to training, expected at the end of this week, following their international commitments.
These players will first undergo performance tests before integrating into team training sessions. In contrast, new signing Ismael Saibari and four other players—Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies, Lennart Karl, and Serge Gnabry—have already resumed full training. This marks Bayern's first Supercup encounter with rivals Borussia Dortmund in five years, with Bayern having won the previous fixture 3-1.
