Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane is widely considered to be one of Europe’s best forwards.

Spurs ace Fernando Llorente sat down for an exclusive interview with Italian media outlet TuttoSport, and raved about the quality of his teammate Harry Kane, labelling the Englishman as a ‘complete striker’.

The 24-year-old has been on fire for Tottenham so far this season, scoring 32 goals in 33 appearances in all competitions, and he has now firmly established himself as one of the continent’s most feared hitmen.

Spurs currently sit in third position in the Premier League table, and are preparing to face Juventus in the lat 16 of the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Their continued progression as a club has in no small part been down to the incredible form of Kane, and his fine displays have not gone unnoticed from his teammates.

Llorente, who joined Spurs from Swansea City in the summer, offered high words of praise for the England international, when speaking exclusively to TuttoSport:

“He scored 56 goals in a calendar year, more than Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. That says it all, right? Kane is the complete striker, very good with his back to goal and can find the net out of nowhere. He has a radar in his mind that shows him where the goal is. Harry is also super professional.”

Tottenham will need Kane to be at his very best on Tuesday night, when they head to Turin to take on Juventus, with Max Allegri’s side having won 11 consecutive games in all competitions.
