Harry Kane is one of the best strikers to grace the modern game, England captain and Tottenham Hotspur legend. But early in his career, it wasn’t clear that he would make it at the highest level. Kane had to go through a laborious apprenticeship in the lower leagues but eventually turned into a goal machine. So much so that Bayern Munich splashed out €100 million to sign him in 2023. So how did Harry Kane become the player he is today?

Awesome
Blud might finally win something
Champion? Really?
What champion he is? (Sorry to ask not try to be rude)
DW, champion means you have won something, he has yet to.
Champion 😂 when u count your chickens before they hatch.
Bayern ❤ Kane
His Mental Fortitude is what sets him apart.
Everyone he switched to Bayern to earn trophies. Nobody wants to be remember as a great loser forever.
This what England has over German in youth development, North East London where Beckham and Kane grew up is an extremely diverse multicultural so playing schools football in this part of London was like playing World Cup football, that is why so many England players grew up in that area. Beckham and Kane both played for Chingford School and they were a mid-table school in the region, so it shows how much talent England missed out on. Back then connections got you trials with big clubs, but that has change in the last 10 years and become more talent based and that is why England have become much stronger with better young players.
I hope he gets to win something, he deserves it. Great role model too.

I'm surprised that german agenda-driven statefunded media like DW used this title because certain people will see it as going against body positivity and implying that one cannot be a goal machine if a person is chubby.
But since those people don't apply such standards equally to both male and female, i believe DW would have never used the word ''chubby'' if this video was about a female footballer.
