Tottenham Hotspur's pre-season tour continues in South Korea with a significant test against German giants Bayern Munich. This friendly, one of two scheduled before the start of the 2024/25 season, marks a step up in competition for Spurs, who have been facing teams below Premier League standard during their tour.
The fixture was reportedly agreed upon as part of the Harry Kane transfer and will provide a valuable insight into Spurs' progress under new manager Ange Postecoglou. Although Spurs have been facing teams in the middle of their season, carrying a level of fitness and match readiness that challenged Tottenham, Bayern Munich presents a much tougher opponent.
However, Bayern Munich is currently facing its own challenges with injuries to key players including Harry Kane, Leroy Sané, and new signing Hiroki Ito. Additionally, some international players are only now returning from their summer breaks.
Despite these setbacks, the match promises to be a fascinating encounter.
