Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel has revealed the secret of Harry Kane's phenomenal inaugural season with the Bavarian side where the England captain has smashed goals for fun.
Speaking on the eve of the big-ticket second-leg of the Champions League semifinal match against Real Madrid, Tuchel said Kane's addiction to cappuccino was perhaps fuelling his goal-scoring spree.
«How many cappuccinos he drinks a day. Every time I go into the kitchen, he is there. It must be so good, I have started doing it. He looks healthy and in good shape,» said Tuchel who looked relaxed and in high-spirits, ahead of the match.
Bayern go into Santiago Bernabeu as the underdogs but a victory, especially after the hard-fought 2-2 draw at the Allianz Arena last week, would provide the perfect sendoff for Tuchel who will be stepping away at the end of the season.
The German manager said he was looking at Kane to come good once again and utilise his experience to guide the Bayern side home.
«We got a big personality in our dressing-room on top of a goalscorer and someone with the ability to handle pressure. But we knew that. He is the captain of England. He has brought everything to the team that we could possibly have hoped for. [Against Real] he needs to prove the point and deliver.”

Despite the season not going the record Bundesliga champions way, Bayern would be hoping to finish the season on a strong note with the UCL trophy. If Bayern cross the Madrid hurdle, it will be a repeat of the 2012 UCL final where Borussia Dortmund await them at the Wembley.
Kane has scored 42 goals in 42 games
