"Robert Lewandowski holds the record for the most goals scored in a Bundesliga season, with 41 goals in the 2020/21 season. Lewy went one better than the great Gerd Müller, who previously set the record with 40 all the way back in 1971/72. Now, Harry Kane is looking to break that record. "Of course, that would be another great record I would love to have", Kane mentioned (Bild as captured by Twitter account @iMiaSanMia)."
"What's impressive about Lewandowski's record is that he missed five matches that season, which means he scored 41 in 29 games. What's even more impressive is that Kane's current rate of scoring (two goals per match) would theoretically see him tally 68 goals by the end of the season (two goals times 34 Bundesliga matches) which would be 27 more than Lewy's 41."
Robert Lewandowski holds the Bundesliga single-season goals record with 41 goals in 2020/21. Gerd Müller previously set the record with 40 goals in 1971/72. Harry Kane is pursuing the record and said he would love to have it, noting he has scored 10 goals in five games and acknowledging maintaining that rate will be difficult. Lewandowski scored 41 in 29 games because he missed five matches that season. Kane's current rate of two goals per match projects to 68 goals over 34 Bundesliga matches, 27 more than 41. Scoring 25-plus goals in a Bundesliga season is rare; Kane had 26 last season.
