Harry Kane came off the bench for his Bayern Munich debut in Saturday's German Super Cup clash with RB Leipzig, just hours after becoming the club's record signing.

Acquired from Tottenham Hotspur for a fee in excess of €100 million, Kane entered the field in the 64th minute with Bayern trailing 2-0 – and the home supporters welcomed him with a huge ovation that filled the Allianz Arena.

Kane is looking to win the first major silverware of his career on his first day as a Bayern player.

Kane, who was given the number nine shirt vacated by Robert Lewandowski, indicated on social media earlier on Saturday that he was "feeling good" and "looking forward to the game" after taking part in his first training session as a new Bayern player.

Bayern fans lined up hours before kick-off to get their "Kane 9" shirts printed at the club store as a buzz of anticipation accompanied the England captain's Bayern debut.
