Harry Kane poised to become third fastest to 55 UCL goals vs Bodø/Glimt

Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane is on the verge of becoming the third fastest player to score 55 goals in UEFA Champions League history. He currently has 54 goals in 70 appearances, and if he finds the net against Bodø/Glimt on Thursday night, he will surpass Ruud van Nistelrooy's mark of 55 goals in 70 matches, trailing only Erling Haaland (55 goals in 49 games) and Van Nistelrooy himself.

Kane has been a consistent scorer for both club and country over the past year, though his start with new Bayern coach Vincent Kompany has been modest—just two goals in four appearances across all competitions this season. The match against the Norwegian side Bodø/Glimt is part of the Champions League group stage, kicking off at the Allianz Arena in Munich.

For fans tracking Kane's legacy, the question is whether he can add this milestone to his growing list of records, especially after his move from Tottenham Hotspur to Bayern last year. Will Thursday's goal cement his place among the competition's elite scorers, or will he need another chance to break into the top two?
