Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane has been voted the 2026 player of the year in Germany by an association of sports journalists, finishing ahead of teammate Michael Olise. The England captain had a remarkable season, helping Bayern win the Bundesliga and German Cup, while also reaching the Champions League semi-finals. Kane scored 61 goals for the club last season in all competitions and added six more as England reached the World Cup semi-finals before losing to Argentina.

Bayern boss Vincent Kompany was named coach of the year, while their women's captain Giulia Gwinn won the award for best female player. The 695 members of the German sports journalists association vote on the award, with Bundesliga players or German footballers playing abroad eligible for the honour. Kane, 33, is the first Englishman to win the award while Olise also finished second in 2025, behind Florian Wirtz.

Bayern sporting director Max Eberl praised Kane, stating, 'It's almost impossible to find the right superlatives to describe Harry Kane -- sometimes I'm at a loss for words. He's already been named England's Footballer of the Year, and now he's also won it in Germany.' The England captain is among the favourites for the Ballon d'Or, which will be handed out in London in October.
