I’m loving life in Munich. Bayern are such a great club. We have an amazing team, a great coach [Vincent Kompany]. So yeah, right now that’s where my focus is, and I’m extremely happy, and to be winning awards like this just shows why I made the move in the first place.”KANE: “PREMIER LEAGUE RETURN?

I still have a lot to achieve in this game – the Champions League, from club level, and to win a major trophy with England, it’s my number one priority for sure.“There’s so many great things I want to achieve, and I’ve learned in a career, in life, you don’t really have much of a say. You just have to go with the flow, see where it takes you, believe in what you’re going to do, like I think making the move, and then just go full gas.“Right now it’s with Munich, and we’ll see where that takes me.”For many Tottenham fans, they will definitely be hoping that, at some point in the future, they welcome back the Englishman who is very much one of their own.READ MORE: Roberto Soldado admits he was ‘crushed’ by Harry Kane’s rise at TottenhamThe post Harry Kane addresses Premier League return talk after Ballon d’Or win, as Tottenham fans dream appeared first on Spurs Web.
