Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel has revealed the secret of Harry Kane’s phenomenal success in Germany: cappuccino addiction.
On Tuesday, Tuchel challenged Kane to show the world something by leading Bayern to a Champions League semi-final when they face Real Madrid in the teams’ second leg at the Bernabeu on Wednesday.
The England captain scored a penalty in last week’s 2-2 first leg draw and comes into Wednesday’s game having found the net an astonishing 44 times in his debut season.
Asked at Tuesday’s press conference in Spain if anything had surprised him about Kane, Tuchel said: “Yes, how many cappuccinos he drinks during the day.” He has surprised me a lot.
‘Every time I walk into the kitchen he’s there. I’ve started doing it myself now. Look at him, he looks healthy and in good shape.

Bayern are not favorites heading into Wednesday’s game, as Real have lost only one game all season.
But former Chelsea manager Tuchel, who will leave Bayern this summer after just one season, believes in Kane but he could be a decisive weapon.
“I knew we were going to have a great personality in the locker room as well as a goalscorer and an example of how to deal with pressure,” Tuchel added.
“He is the captain of England and he has given us everything we expected. Tomorrow he needs to prove it and deliver.
