Journalist feels record-breaking Tottenham star is underappreciated

 Harry Kane recently became Tottenham’s all-time top scorer with 267 goals to his name.

Journalist Darren Lewis has now heaped praise on the 29-year-old striker and slammed his critics who have been disrespectful to the England international over the years.

Lewis claims that Kane has not been appreciated properly because he has not won a trophy with Tottenham yet.

He said on the Kelly and Wrighty show: “The reason why I feel sympathy for Kane is that so often – and we’ve all worked with people who say he’s the best in the world – but then as soon as Spurs said ‘okay, if you want him City, he’s going to cost £160 million’, everyone said: ‘oh, is he really worth that?’.

“And I saw that as so disrespectful to a guy who had won three Premier League Golden Boots.

“He’d proven his consistency in the most difficult league in the world, plus the World Cup Golden Boot as well. And yet, people were doubting his ability.

“If he were to leave in the summer I don’t think there are many Spurs fans who would begrudge him going.”

There is no doubt that the England international is a world-class player and he is undoubtedly one of the best strikers of all time in the Premier League. The player has been linked with a move away from Tottenham at the end of the season and it remains to be seen if he decides to move on.

The 29-year-old will feel that his best years are coming to an end soon and he needs to join a club capable of winning the major trophies.

A player of his quality will have no shortage of suitors and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham are prepared to cash in on him.

The Londoners will be hoping to end their wait for silverware soon and the departure of Kane will certainly come as a damaging blow.

Furthermore, the future of Antonio Conte is on the line as well with the Italian’s contract expiring in the summer.

If Conte ends up leaving Tottenham, it could convince Kane to pursue other avenues and join a bigger club in the summer. It would also speak volumes about Tottenham’s ambitions as a club.
