Tottenham Hotspur striker, Harry Kane is England’s only world-class player.

That is the view of former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder, Graeme Souness.

According to Souness, Kane, who is the current captain of the England national team, is in a league of his own.

“We touched on it before when he was getting his award about he’s a scorer of all types of goals, but he’s a real football player,” Souness told Sky Sports.

“He can produce the killer pass, he curls things in, he smashes things in, he taps things in, he’s just a top man. He is England’s only world-class footballer for me.”

Kane is one goal away from becoming England’s all-time record goalscorer.

He's performed consistently in front of goal since properly breaking through at Spurs in 2014/15 and has added playmaking to his game in recent years, leading to Souness talking up the skipper as the nation's only elite player in his eyes.

However the statement didn't go down too well with some fans, with plenty pointing out that Marcus Rashford is performing exceptionally at the moment.

The Manchester United star has 24 goals in all competitions this season, including 15 in 17 games post-World Cup after notching a brace against Leicester City.
