The Tottenham Hotspur hitman has been in sensational form so far this season.

Spurs stopper Hugo Lloris spoke exclusively to the club’s official website, and offered high words of praise for his teammate Harry Kane, after the England international reached the 100 Premier League goals milestone on Sunday.

Kane is Spurs through and through, and the fact that he is a product of the Lilywhites academy must make his devastating rise to prominence that little bit sweeter for the club’s fans.

The France international spoke exclusively to the club’s official website, and explained how the fact that Kane has risen through the ranks at Tottenham is one of the best things about him:

“He’s like all top goalscorers. If you want to achieve things you need that type of player and the best thing is that he’s come through the Academy and that makes the Spurs fans and Spurs community even prouder of Harry. Now he just needs to carry on!”

Next up for Spurs is the North London Derby against bitter rivals Arsenal on Saturday, and with the Gunners full of confidence following two high profile arrivals last month, Kane will have to be at his very best, if his side are to emerge from the contest victorious.
