BERLIN, March 9 (Xinhua) -- One of Harry Kane's favorite dishes might not be the ideal nutrition for a professional sportsman.

But it seems not surprising that the 30-year-old Three Lions captain is regularly enjoying what he likes best, some breaded escallops, better known as the German traditional dish Schnitzel in a roll.

To explain his goal performance with his consumption of Schnitzels comes near a bold theory, but his 36 goals aside from 10 assists in 34 games of all competitions seem to indicate the player's food habits don't do any harm.

Schnitzel-king Kane became the first player in the German Bundesliga to score his fourth hattrick in his debut season after his latest three goals when Bayern crushed Mainz 8-1.

The England international gained an additional record spot by scoring at least two goals against eight different teams in his first German league season.

Only once a player scored 30 goals in his debut season in the league's history. German striker icon Uwe Seeler did that feat in the 1963/64 campaign.

Compared to some of his predecessors such as Robert Lewandowski (17 goals in 2014/15) and Mario Gomes (10 in 2009/10), Bayern's 100-million-buy doesn't seem to need much time to get used to a foreign league.

Especially remarkable is the fact, that 2020 treble winner Bayern is his first club outside of England after 14 years in the shirt of the Spurs when he became Tottenham's record scorer.

With 30 goals after 25 rounds of matches, Lewandowski's record of 41 season goals achieved in the 2020/21 season seems in danger.

The move to Bayern seems to take Kane to new shores as he never scored more than 30 goals in a league season. In 2017/18 and 2022/23, he ended up with 30 hits in the Premier League.

After leaving England last summer, Kane developed into a true leader in the Bavarians shirt. While the team struggled due to disagreement with coach Thomas Tuchel and club internal turbulences in the leader board, Kane kept their spirits high and provided as much stability as possible.

The forward is providing the entire range of skills needed in the box. From hard shots with a speed of over 110 kilometers to headers, penalties, or gentle ball-lifting shots, Kane's abilities are striking.

The superstar simultaneously is running his life without any scandals mostly keeping his private life private.

Having proceeded to the last-eight rounds of the UEFA Champions League, the attacker's dream to reach the 2023/24 UEFA Champions League final in London is alive.

Reports speak of the Bayern striker eagerly awaiting the draw on March 15. Enditem
