“Kane is not a self-centered player, he is a 360-degree striker. He looks not only at the opponent team’s goal but also at his teammates,” Munich CEO Jan-Christian Drissen said at the European Golden Shoe Awards held in Bavaria, Germany on Sunday (Korea time).

Kane, a former Tottenham one-club man, moved to Munich for 100 million euros in transfer fees last summer and scored 36 goals in his first season of the Bundesliga, winning the European Golden Shoe for the first time in his life. He is the third Munich player to win the award after Gerd Müller and Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona, twice), and the first English player in 24 years since Kevin Phillips in 1990.

“Kane is a leader, a role model, and a popular star in Munich. He really captured the hearts of our fans,” Munich Chairman Hubert Heiner said.

“We are very proud of Kane for a good start in Munich and to win the Golden Shoe. Kane is a great role model, not only in goals but also in and out of the stadium. He is a ‘golden character’ in general for us.”

Kane said, “Moving to Munich was one of the best decisions of my life. My thanks go to the club, my teammates and my family. This is an award for everyone. I stand here, but without the people around me, such success would not have been possible.”

“I always think about the next game, the next goal, how to help the team. Munich is the best club in the world, and I’m looking forward to the new season.”

European Golden Shoe, which means the best scorer in Europe, has changed its rules since 1997, giving two points per goal to players who play in leagues ranked within the top five in the UEFA league and 1.5 points per goal to players in leagues ranked 6th to 22nd in the league.

For this reason, critics say that the European Golden Shoe is the exclusive property of big leaguers. Before changing the rules, the player who scored the most goals in a single season in the European league received the trophy. The winner in 1996 was Zviad Endeladze, who played in the Georgia League, and the winner in 1997 was Ronaldo.

Kane scored two points per goal, a total of 72 points, beating Seru Girasi (current Dortmund, 28 goals), Erling Holan (Man City), and Kylian Mbappe (then Paris Saint-Germain, now Real Madrid, 27 goals), who scored 56 and 54 points, respectively.

Kane also threw a magic wand at the World Cup with Ulm. He remained silent at the opening game of the league against Wolfsburg.
