HARRY KANE has finally ended his wait for a major trophy.
Bayern Munich landed the Bundesliga title after Bayer Leverkusen’s draw with Freiburg this afternoon.

And the former Tottenham star immediately took to Instagram to celebrate the achievement seconds after the final whistle – with a simple emoji of a trophy.
Xabi Alonso’s side needed to win in order to make Bayern wait to see their spot as champions confirmed.
But Maximilian Eggestein netted in the first half for the hosts – who jump into the Champions League places – before Piero Hincape put through his own net.
Premier League transfer target Florian Wirtz pulled a goal back and Jonathan Tah levelled in injury-time to make it 2-2 but it was not enough.
With a draw, Leverkusen can no longer catch Bayern with just two games left to play.
And it means that, for the first time in his 15-year career, Kane is a champion.
The England captain could have earned the accolade yesterday but Bayern were held to a dramatic 3-3 draw by RB Leipzig.
The Bavarian side had overturned a 2-0 defecit to lead with minutes remaining, only for Yussuf Poulsen to net with the last kick of the game.
Kane missed the game due to suspension but had made his way down to the pitch from the stands to celebrate with his team after being given special dispensation.
Bundesliga rules state that a suspended player can not be on the pitchside from 30 minutes before kick-off until 30 minutes after the full-time whistle.
But Kane was left stunned pitchside as the title slipped through his grasp – if only for 24 hours.
Kane joined Bayern from Spurs in 2023 with the aim of winning trophies.

However, his debut season saw the German giants fail to win a single title for the first time since the barren 2011/12 campaign.
The striker had to watch on as Leverkusen went invincible in the league while Bayern were dumped out of the Champions League and German Cup.
Kane never won a major honour at Tottenham Hotspur despite reaching the finals of the Carabao Cup twice and the Champions League.
The North London outfit lost the Carabao Cup final to Chelsea and Man City and the Champions League to Liverpool in 2019.
