The England captain achieved this in Bayern’s 4-0 win over Stuttgart, a game that kept his side at the top of the Bundesliga.
Since his arrival from Tottenham in 2023, Kane has been in remarkable form, scoring 57 goals in 55 games across all competitions.
His six league hat-tricks break the previous club record held by Dieter Müller, who took 118 games to reach the same milestone.
The legendary Gerd Müller, Bayern’s all-time leading scorer, needed 127 games to reach six Bundesliga hat-tricks.
Kane’s dominance in front of goal has already etched his name in the club’s history books, even though he still has a long way to go to challenge Gerd Müller’s 565 goals for Bayern.
Speaking after the Stuttgart game, Kane emphasized the importance of the first goal, which opened up the match for Bayern, and expressed his happiness with the team’s overall performance.
Bayern Munich’s sporting director Max Eberl praised Kane’s relentless work ethic and his ability to consistently deliver for the team.
Eberl pointed out that Kane not only contributes with goals but also through his all-around play, which is often overlooked.
Kane’s impressive season continued after being asked about the best young player to watch out for, and he quickly pointed to Crystal Palace and England midfielder Adam Wharton.
He also highlighted Jamal Musiala as the Bundesliga’s best player and Lionel Messi as the world’s best footballer, citing Messi’s outstanding performances in the Copa America.
Bayern Munich now face a significant challenge in the Champions League with a match against Barcelona.
Bayern have dominated recent meetings, winning six consecutive games against the Spanish side, who have struggled to score against them in their last four matches.
Barcelona, under their new coach Hansi Flick, are eager to improve this record and are looking forward to the challenge.
Kane’s incredible form and goal-scoring exploits have not only helped Bayern maintain their dominance in the Bundesliga but also set the stage for another chapter in his illustrious career.
The striker continues to prove his class, breaking records and showing why he is regarded as one of the world’s best forwards.
