    WHAT KANE SAID

    Speaking to Tottenham media after Spurs' 4-0 loss to Bayern Munich this week, Kane said: "He’s got great potential. Whether he’s playing as a left winger or a striker, he gets into dangerous areas, he can finish the ball well, and he’s good one-v-one.

    "I don’t want to put too much pressure on him – he’s going to the Premier League, he’s still extremely young although he has a lot of experience here, he still has to develop and improve, he knows that and he works hard to do that, so I just want him to go and enjoy himself, have confidence and hopefully he can shine in the Premier League."

  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Kane also reflected on his decision to join Bayern, calling it "a great experience" for both him and his family. He added: "Life is good. It’s been a great experience so far, I’m enjoying my time here, the family are enjoying it, so yes, I’m looking forward to the season ahead. Obviously, this is a journey that started at Tottenham from when I was 11 and took me to where I am now – I’m appreciative of everyone who has been involved in that journey and I’m thankful to the Tottenham fans as well, they’ve been a big part of it."
