Former Tottenham teammate surprised by Harry Kane's rise to the top

Former Tottenham player Andros Townsend, who played with Harry Kane, says the 26-year-old "is one of the best strikers in the world". Townsend left Spurs in 2016 and he currently plays for Crystal Palace. Speaking to talkSPORT, Townsend said: “Harry is one of the best strikers in the world and I didn’t see it coming, but he always had the foundations to do it. “From the first time I saw him he’s always had an incredible ability to score goals. “Maybe he didn’t have the mobility he does now, or maybe he was half a yard slower, but he always possessed that ability to score left foot, right foot, from any position on the pitch. “And in the last three or four years he’s been in the gym, he’s bulked up, he’s got quicker, he’s got stronger, he can head the ball, he can run. “He’s pretty much an all-round player now and one of the best in the world, and rightly so.” Kane is currently out with a hamstring injury. The player has made 25 appearances so far during this season with having scored 17 goals and provided 2 assists. source - Goal
