Fabio Capello has raved about Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane in The Daily Mail.
The former England manager has said that Kane is extraordinary, and that he will take him ahead of Inter Milan and Belgium international striker Romelu Lukaku.
Kane is a key player for Tottenham and England, while Lukaku is a big figure for Inter and Belgium.
What Fabio Capello said
Capello told The Daily Mail when asked to choose between Kane and Lukaku: “I always say Kane because he has more qualities than the Belgian but Lukaku is a very strong player.
“Let’s say I would have liked both but if I had to choose I would always say Kane. He has extraordinary quality.
“Also in his case we must underline Southgate’s skill in knowing how to wait patiently for Kane: now he’s unlocked’.”
Harry Kane is world class
Capello may not have been a huge success as the England boss, but the Italian is a legendary manager.
The Italian has won league titles with AC Milan, Real Madrid and AS Roma, and he knows a quality player when he sees one.
Of course, we all know just how good Kane is.
We also know his goalscoring record in the Premier League.
Capello choosing Kane over Lukaku underlines just how highly rated Kane is in the footballing community.
Yes, the Tottenham striker has not been at his best for England at Euro 2020 so far, but you can always rely on him to turn on the style on the big occasions.
Do not be surprised if Kane scores two or three goals for England against Ukraine in the quarter-finals of the European Championship.
