Harry Kane Sends Message to Manchester United After They Drew Bayern Munich in UCL Group Stage

• Manchester United and Bayern Munich were drawn in the same Champions League group
• Group A also has Copenhagen and Galatasaray, as United return to Europe's top competition
• Former Premier League star, Harry Kane is relishing the opportunity of facing a familiar foe

Harry Kane is delighted that his UEFA Champions League group outing with Bayern Munich will fly him back to England, where he will play on familiar turf.

Kane left Tottenham Hotspur on a long overdue move amidst continuous attempts to rid his career of the stigma of having not won a trophy despite being one of the best goalscorers in the world.

The move was worth £86m and despite a late attempt to scupper the move by Tottenham CEO Daniel Levy, the England striker was allowed to travel to Germany in time for his debut less than 24 hours later.

As reported by Fox Sports, his debut came in the German Super Cup final with the opportunity to win his first trophy. Bayern embarrassingly lost 3-0 to RB Leipzig, thanks to Dani Olmo's hat-trick.

Kane's message to Manchester United

The UCL group stage draws were held at Nyon, Switzerland, yesterday. The returning Red Devils were drawn in the same group as Bavarian giants Bayern Munich.

It gives Kane an opportunity to return to England quickly after moving away from his country. The group also has Danish club Copenhagen and Turkish giants Galatasaray.

Kane took to social media and quoted the final groupings with the message "Can't wait for this🙌" and it indirectly sends a message to a familiar foe.

As noted by Transfermarkt, he has five goals and three assists against the Red Devils in 19 games.

As reported by Sportskeeda, Erik ten Hag was interested in offering Kane a stay in the Premier League, but Spurs' asking price of £100m for domestic rivals and the player's salary put the deal off.
