Is Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane good enough to play for Real Madrid?
The former Tottenham striker rates the England international highly, and believes that the 24-year-old is good enough at the moment to play for Spanish and European giants Madrid.
The former Barcelona star has also stated that Kane is a better striker than Real Madrid star Karim Benzema.
Lineker told Yahoo! Sport: “Where could go Kane be in a few years’ time? That remains to be seen and while Spurs will hope he stays with them, you can see a scenario where one of the big clubs might look at him.
“I stand by my statement from last season that he was better than their current striker Karim Benzema and feel Kane could play for a big club like Real Madrid right now if he wanted to.
“I like Benzema, he is a very good centre-forward, but I think if I played in that Real Madrid team, I would score a goal every game and I think Kane is good enough to play at that stature of club.”
Kane is one of the best strikers in the Premier League and has been in stunning form for Tottenham for the past three seasons.
The 24-year-old scored 29 goals and provided seven assists in 29 Premier League starts for Spurs last season, while during the 2015-16 campaign the Englishman scored 25 goals and provided one assist in 38 league appearances for the North London outfit.
Tottenham kicked off their 2017-18 Premier League campaign with a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United away from home at St. James’ Park last weekend.
Spurs will take on London rivals Chelsea at the Wembley Stadium in their next league game this weekend.
