Obviously, Bayern Munich would love for Harry Kane to get the acclaim he deserves and win the Ballon d'Or, but the club does have other reasons for hoping that the Englishman can win the coveted trophy:
I heard it would be a very important thing for Harry Kane to win this year's Ballon d'Or. It would also be very important for Bayern Munich, because it would show that the club can be anything for any player and that the Bundesliga is not just a "farmer's league"; the best players can play in the German top-flight. For Kane, of course, it would be important after England's disappointing exit from the World Cup. He won the golden boot this season, the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal, so he has a very good chance. I had a look at the bookies and they have very good odds on Harry Kane. But he has, of course, competition; there's Kylian Mbappe who scored 10 goals, Lionel Messi (who's already a big name) with eight goals in the World Cup, and don't forget the world champions with Rodri and Lamine Yamal, not to mention Ousmane Dembele from PSG who helped them win the Champions League. So, it's getting difficult for Harry Kane.
Ultimately, Kane winning the Ballon d'Or would also be beneficial for Bayern's negotiations with Michael Olise, as it proves to the Frenchman that he can achieve anything he wants with the Bavarian giants. So, perhaps he doesn't need to have his head turned by Real Madrid or other European heavyweights. Bayern Munich are looking at the Ballon d'Or ceremony, and it's in London on October 26 – so, a home advantage for Harry Kane.
Bayern Munich is not in the wrong here. The Bundesliga could use a profile boost and there is no other club equipped to help provide that. Just two years ago, Jamal Musiala was being touted as a Ballon d'Or candidate. Now, with Kane and Olise, it actually does have two players who performed to the requisite level of play to be under consideration.
For this writer, Kane has the edge over Olise, but both are likely to be swallowed by the propaganda machine that is France Football. Somehow, though. Mbappé and Messi will probably garner more consideration.
