Tottenham Hotspur and Everton have arguably the two best strikers in the Premier League amongst their ranks.

Spurs star Harry Kane sat down for an exclusive interview with the club’s official website, and offered his take on whether or not he can catch Toffees striker Romelu Lukaku in the race for this season’s Premier League Golden boot.

The Belgian currently leads the standings on 24 goals, four more than the England international, although the Tottenham man has played eight games less than the Everton hitman.

With just six games left to play in the league, however, Kane will have his work cut-out if he is to catch Lukaku.

The Lilywhites striker is adamant that he can catch the Blues striker in the race for the Golden Boot which he won last season though, whilst admitting that he has been keeping a close eye on the Belgian recently, during an exclusive interview with TottenhamHotspur.com.

Kane responded to a question asking him if he has been keeping tabs on Lukaku recently:

“It’s hard not to! As a striker you want to be top scorer in the league, no doubt about it. I left a couple out there I probably should have scored, Lukaku has been doing well and it’s a good competition but the main thing is we’re winning games. I’ve a little eye on the run-in and if I can get a few more, we’ll see what happens!”

The Spurs and Everton strikers have been equally important to their teams’ relatively successful campaigns so far this term.

And if Kane can go on to fire his Tottenham side to title glory, he will surely not be too concerned whether he defends his Golden Boot crown or not.
