Romelu Lukaku has scored nine goals for Everton in the Premier League this season, while Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane has scored seven times.
Andy Townsend has told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, which was broadcast on TalkSPORT on 22nd December, that he would much prefer Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane to Everton’s Romelu Lukaku.
Kane and Lukaku are considered to be two of the top, young strikers in the Premier League.
However, Townsend claims that Tottenham’s Kane is a far superior player to Lukaku.
“I’d have Harry Kane over Lukaku every day of the week,” Townsend said.
Kane has netted over 20 goals for Tottenham in both of the past two seasons, and he is well on his way to reaching that total again.
The England international has scored seven goals in the Premier League so far this campaign, despite missing a portion of the season with injury.
Lukaku, meanwhile, has come under criticism at Everton in recent times – with his performances failing to impress.
The former Chelsea forward has been accused of showing a lack of effort during his displays for the Goodison Park side.
Lukaku has found the back of the net on nine occasions for Ronald Koeman’s men so far this campaign.
