It’s a World Cup year, which means we’re all asking ourselves if this England team is actually legitimate contenders to win a second title. The answer to that question likely lies on the legs of one Harry Kane.
The Tottenham Hotspur striker and captain of the Three Lions will be shouldering expectations of a national team that failed to make it out of the group stage back in 2014. Kane was not part of that team, and in fact, had not even made a Premier League start until April of that year. Since then, he has risen into stardom as one of the most prolific goalscorers on the planet.
Don’t let the “traditional center forward” critiques fool you, Kane is a great poacher but he can find the back of the net from long distance too. He’s coming off a 41-goal campaign with the Spurs, so consider this a HurriKane warning, Russia.
