Bayern Munich's Harry Kane has won the Gerd Müller Trophy as the highest-scoring player from 2023/24, which he will share with Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappé. England's record goalscorer picked up the prestigious award at the Ballon d'Or ceremony in Paris.

Kane - who will share the award with current Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé - scored an astounding 44 goals in 45 games in all competitions for Bayern last season, while his eight goals for England in the same season brought the 31-year-old's tally to 52 for club and country.

In his first season with the Bavarian giants after signing from Tottenham Hotspur, Kane blew the striking competition away in the Bundesliga as he went on to lift the famous Torjägerkanone trophy as the division's highest goalscorer with 36 goals in just 32 appearances.

That tally also earned the Londoner the Golden Shoe award as European club football's best striker, an accolade previously earned by Bayern greats Robert Lewandowski and Gerd Müller, whom Kane's latest prize is named after. 

Kane has started the current campaign in equally prolific form for Bayern, joining Omar Marmoush in the early running at the top of the Bundesliga scoring leaderboard with nine goals. Indeed, the striker's tally in all competitions stands at 15 goals in 12 games, while he tops the UEFA Champions League charts this season with five strikes to his name.
