Harry Kewell speaks highly of Tottenham Hotspur youngsters Harry Kane and Dele Alli.
Former Leeds United and Liverpool attacker Harry Kewell has told The Sun that Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli is an exceptional player.
The former Australia international has praised the 20-year-old for showing aggression on the pitch.
Kewell has also spoken highly of Alli’s England international and Tottenham teammate Harry Kane.
“I like Dele Alli – I know he’s been picked up for a bit of aggressive play, but I like that in a player,” Kewell told The Sun. “From where he’s come to what he’s done is phenomenal. I think he’s an exceptional player.”
“Give him half a yard and he’ll score – that’s a striker for you,” said Kewell about Kane. “I’ve played with world-class strikers like Robbie Fowler, Michael Owen and Fernando Torres. They are players who only needed half a yard to score – that’s Harry Kane.”
