Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus hit men Harry Kane and Gonzalo Higuain will lead the lines for their teams in the Champions League knockout rounds next month.

Juventus signed Higuain for £75 million from Napoli in 2016, while Kane is considered ‘priceless’ by Tottenham after an incredible 2017 season.

Former Argentina striker Hernan Crespo has been asked for his thoughts on the two forwards, and says he believes Tottenham’s Harry Kane is the superior of the two.

Crespo told Tuttomercatoweb: “As a coach, if I had to choose, I would take Kane if I worked in England and Higuain if I played in Italy or Spain.

“We have to make an absolute ranking, now my favorites are Luis Suarez, Lewandowski and Kane. A bit behind, but it’s just a matter of taste, I put Higuain and Aguero “.
