Kane’s drive earns Beckham comparison as former Tottenham coach discusses maximising potential

Harry Kane’s relentless drive has earned him a comparison to Manchester United legend David Beckham, with former Tottenham youth coach Ross Embleton considering both men to have maximised their ability despite not being obvious world beaters.

Ex-England captain Beckham saw his potential spotted early by those at Old Trafford and he would go on to become a global superstar whose fame transcended his chosen sport.

Kane now dons the armband for the Three Lions and enjoys a similar standing on the world stage. A reputation as one of the most fearsome and prolific strikers in the business has been firmly established, with 181 goals recorded through 278 appearances for Spurs.
