Bukayo Saka has praised Harry Kane for helping him to settle in at the England National team after he was invited for the first time in the last international window.
The 19-year-old has been rewarded for his fine form with Arsenal with another call-up and via a press conference, he revealed that the players had been very receptive to him when he joined them for the first time.
Being a player of Arsenal, who are fierce rivals with Tottenham, you would think that Kane may want little to do with Saka.
However, the teenage midfield star revealed that Kane came over to him and asked how he was fairing, he credited that gesture for being the reason why he was able to settle in with the boys and feel at home even faster.
“All the boys have been so good with me from the first minute I came in,” Saka said in a press conference as quoted by Football London.
“Harry Kane put his arm around me, he spoke to me and asked me how I was. For him to do that, it helped me settle in much quicker and made me feel comfortable to be myself around everyone.
“That helps me not just off the pitch but also on the pitch too, because I feel like I can be myself, express myself and play with the confidence that I play with back at my club.”
Kane will be hoping to lead England to wins against the likes of Republic of Ireland and the Nations League doubleheader against Belgium and Iceland.
Kane’s a class act, every time
