Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has raved about Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos on Sky Sports.

The Tottenham and England international striker has said that Ramos is one of the best central defenders he has ever faced.

Kane said on Sky Sports: “Sergio Ramos, incredible, incredible player.”

Interestingly, Ramos has been linked with a move to Tottenham in the summer transfer window.

The 35-year-old central defender is out of contract at Madrid at the end of the season, and no new deal is in place at the momen.

90min reported in November 2020 that Tottenham are among the clubs interested in the Spain international central defender.

The London Evening Standard claimed in December 2020 that then Spurs head coach Jose Mourinho was keeping an eye on Ramos’s situation.

Unlikely Tottenham Hotspur transfer?

Ramos remains one of the best central defenders in the world, and there is no doubt that he would make Spurs better and stronger at the back.

That Kane, one of the best strikers in the world, speaks about Ramos so highly shows just how highly the defender is rated about fellow footballers.

However, it is hard to see Ramos join Spurs this summer. The 35-year-old has been on the books of Madrid since 2005 and is a club legend, and it is very likely that he will put pen to paper on a new deal.

Spurs may not finish in the Champions League places and are unlikely to challenge for the Premier League title next season.

Ramos is used to winning major trophies season after season, and it is unlikely that he would want to join a club who are likely to need a rebuild.
