Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany said Harry Kane will be assessed a few hours before the Champions League’s dam decision of his team against Celtic after missing training on Monday.
Kompany played the possibility that Kane was injured after the striker presented himself throughout the 0-0 draw in Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday who kept the leaders of Bundesliga at eight points of their placed opponents.
“It’s nothing bad,” said Kompany. “We didn’t have much time to recover. Sometimes you need an additional day of rest. We will see how he feels tomorrow.

Bayern is enormous favorites to go to the 16 -year -old final after winning the first stage of their draw in Celtic Park last Wednesday through the opening of Michael Olise in the 45th minute and a goal from Kane four minutes after Half-time in their 2-1 victory.

“We trust our team,” added the Belgian. “I don’t want to judge what’s going on in the future yet. I don’t want to look further than our match against Celtic.
“We have a lot of games … But it’s also fun. And we have a team that is ready for that. When the results are correct, you have this little additional strength and energy – and this should help us [against Celtic]. “”
