Harry Kane moved to Bayern Munich in the hope - maybe even the expectation - of finally winning a first trophy of his career.

Arsenal, the England captain’s old foe, could ensure that long wait goes on for at least another season.

The Champions League remains Bayern’s last hope of silverware in a difficult season that has seen Germany’s grandest club dominated by Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga and eliminated by third-division Saarbruecken in the second round of the German Cup.

Bayern’s opponent in the Champions League quarterfinals is Arsenal, pitting Kane against a team he considered his fiercest rival during a 19-year stint with Tottenham that came to an end in August.

The first leg is in London on Tuesday, when Kane will no doubt be the target of jeers from 60,000 Arsenal fans - there'll be no Bayern supporters inside Emirates Stadium for disciplinary reasons - and the biggest threat to Arsenal’s defenders.
