If there’s anyone that can do it, it’s him
Robert Lewandowski holds the record for the most goals scored in a Bundesliga season, with 41 goals in the 2020/21 season. Lewy went one better than the great Gerd Müller, who previously set the record with 40 all the way back in 1971/72. Now, Harry Kane is looking to break that record.
“Of course, that would be another great record I would love to have”, Kane mentioned (Bild as captured by Twitter account @iMiaSanMia). “So far, I’ve scored 10 goals in five games. If I keep that up, it’s certainly possible. But it will be difficult to maintain that rate throughout the entire season.”
What’s impressive about Lewandowski’s record is that he missed five matches that season, which means he scored 41 in 29 games. What’s even more impressive is that Kane’s current rate of scoring (two goals per match) would theoretically see him tally 68 goals by the end of the season (two goals times 34 Bundesliga matches) which would be 27 more than Lewy’s 41. For context, it’s rare that a player cracks 25+ goals in a Bundesliga season and the fact that Harry’s 26 goals in the league last season could be added on top of the current record and it would still fall short of the theoretical limit. That’s crazy stuff.
