Bayern Munich have received an injury boost ahead of their final game of 2024, Friday's Bundesliga clash with RB Leipzig, with Harry Kane and Alphonso Davies set to return to the squad.

“If things go as well on Friday as they did in training yesterday, we're in good shape," Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said at his pre-match press conference on Thursday.

“It was good to have some players back in training: Alphonso Davies, Harry Kane were there, also Josip Stanišić, even if they might not feature in this game. It's been a good week for us because we've been doing a lot of training on the pitch.”

Kane, who has been training with his teammates since Monday, seems likely to start. But Kompany wouldn't give any guarantees.

“I won't say whether he'll start or not. The final training session is still important today. If everything goes well, he'll definitely play a part tomorrow," said the Bayern coach.
