Harry Kane, the England captain, finds himself in an unusual position as he returns to play his first club game in England since joining Bayern Munich, facing Manchester United at Old Trafford. The move to Bayern was marked by a persistent pursuit by the German club, ultimately convincing Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy to let Kane go in August, while Manchester United withdrew from the race, deeming the transfer too expensive and complex. The irony lies in Kane's swift promotion within Bayern, now placed in Band B in the PCB's central contract list.
Manchester City is running to sign RB Leipzig's Josko Gvardiol - however, the German membership needs at least 100m euros (£85.77m) for the Croatia defender.
