Joshua Kimmich Urges Harry Kane to Play vs Real Madrid

Joshua Kimmich has urged Harry Kane to start in the Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid despite his physical problems, promising to win the tie.

Bayern captain Joshua Kimmich took responsibility for the team's recent struggles against Real Madrid, which have spanned five elimination games since 2017. He insists Harry Kane will be fit to lead the attack in Tuesday's quarter-final first leg.

Kimmich humorously declared he would play himself if necessary, joking that Kane would be ready "even in a wheelchair" to help secure a victory.
