REVEALED: How Leroy Sane’s girlfriend is helping build his ‘dream couple’ status with Harry Kane in Bayern Munich’s attack

Leroy Sane‘s girlfriend Candice has reportedly played an important role in the helping the winger’s blossoming partnership at Bayern Munich with Harry Kane.

Sane and Kane have enjoyed a superb start to the season with the German champions, after the latter joined in the summer in a £100m move from Tottenham.

The England captain has scored eight goals in six matches for Bayern, including a hat-trick in their 7-0 win over Bochum last week.

Sane follows in Bayern’s scoring charts with five goals so far this campaign, aided by three assists from Kane.

The ability of Kane to drop deep and pick out Sane’s runs has been noted during a productive start to the season.

Sane’s girlfriend Candice Brook has reportedly played a role in their strong early connection

According to German newspaper Bild, Sane’s girlfriend Candice Brook has also played a role in building a ‘dream couple’ in the Bayern attack.

With Kane unable to speak German, Sane’s fluency in English due to his relationship with his American girlfriend Brook and his time in England with Man City has been credited with helping to build the relationship early.

Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel highlighted Kane and Sane’s communication when asked about the obvious link-up between the pair. 

‘I said at the beginning that Harry as a personality, as a fixed point, as a character will make the players around him better through the way he plays, through his presence,’ Tuchel said. 

‘Harry does what Harry always did. It’s a good combination. 

‘Not just the two of them, but with both of them it’s very obvious at the moment.

‘It helps that Leroy speaks English fluently like a second native language and communication is very easy.’

Sane’s start to the season has been a major boost to Bayern after the German international endured a difficult 2022-23 campaign.

Sane and Kane have scored 13 goals in the opening weeks of the season for Bayern Munich

The 27-year-old scored just 14 goals in 44 appearances last season, noticeably struggling for form after the World Cup in Qatar.

Sane scored just four goals in the second half of the season, amid reports he had been commuting between England and Munich to see his model girlfriend Brook and their children, Rio Stella and Milo. 

Bayern Munich are top of the Bundesliga after winning four and drawing one of their opening five league games of the season.

The reigning champions have scored 18 goals across the five matches, while Tuchel’s side beat Man United 4-2 in their opening Champions League game of the campaign.
