England captain Kane almost signed for Union Berlin, claims former head coach Schafer

Before breaking through at the Premier League side, the striker came close to a loan spell in Germany

Harry Kane almost spent a year on loan at Union Berlin, says former head of first-team football Nico Schafer.

The England striker came through the ranks in the Tottenham youth academy and was sent out on loan before breaking through at the north London side.

Kane had spells at Leyton Orient, Millwall, Norwich and Leicester, but came close to having a spell in Germany's second tier in 2012.
