Sensational Nigerian athlete, Tobi Amusan on Sunday defeated her competitors to win the Silesia Diamond League Women’s 100m Hurdles in Poland.

Bayern Munich President Confident Of Signing Harry Kane

Bayern Munich honorary president, Uli Hoeness has stressed that the German Bundesliga champions would sign Harry Kane this summer despite Tottenham Hotspur’s resistance.

Recall that after Tottenham Hotspur rejected Bayern’s first offer of £60 million, the German Bundesliga champions made a second offer worth £70 million for Harry Kane’s signature which the Premier League club rejected.

Amidst that Uli Hoeness confirmed that Bayern Munich and Harry Kane’s representatives have met and negotiated a deal for the 29-year-old England international.

Hoeness stated that their conversations with Patrick, Kane’s father, and Charlie, Kane’s brother and agent, had gone smoothly.
