Julian Brandt praises Bayern Munich pair Harry Kane and Leroy Sane

Borussia Dortmund star Julian Brandt has been impressed by Bayern Munich's Harry Kane and Leroy Sane so far this season.

Kane signed for Die Roten from Tottenham in August, and has wasted little time to make an impact at the Bundesliga giants.

The 30-year-old striker has scored 14 goals in only 13 appearances across all competitions, while also providing seven assists.

Brandt believes Kane has once again proved that he is a world class talent capable of scoring whenever he is given the opportunity.

"[Kane's success] hasn't surprised me. When I watched the first few games, I thought maybe he would need a bit of time to really settle into the team," Brandt told the official Bundesliga website.

"He scored in most games, but you still thought maybe he would need to adapt, but now you can see that he is getting better week on week, his teammates understand him, he understands them."

Brandt has also been enjoying Sane's exploits with Bayern this season, and reckons the former Manchester City star has improved considerably in recent months.

"I have to say, there is a lot of focus on Harry Kane at the moment, but for me, personally, and I can judge this because I played with him, Leroy's development is sensational. He's so strong at the moment," added Brandt.

"I don't want to say he's showing what he can do, but he's extremely efficient, and for me the player at Bayern who is playing the best and who we should be focussing on the most.

"I don't want to talk Harry Kane down, given how many goals he has scored, but I think Leroy is their key player."
