Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has said that striker Harry Kane can go on to become his club’s own version of Italian legend Francesco Totti.
The 24-year old has been in fine form this season and has firmly established himself as one of the best strikers in World football.
Kane scored a hat-trick during his side’s 5-2 win over Southampton on Tuesday and this took his tally for the calendar year to 39 and in the process, he eclipsed the record held by Alan Shearer.
Shearer has since claimed that Kane could remain at the North London club for his entire career and Pochettino himself refused to rule out that possibility.
“I think Alan Shearer knows better than me, because he’s English and knows the mentality of the country,” said Pochettino.
“Maybe he said that because maybe it’s possible. Maybe Harry Kane with his mentality can be the same kind of player for Tottenham as Francesco Totti was for Roma.
“And for us, our fans and everyone, Harry is a fantastic player, a great mentality and a fantastic professional.
“So yes, why not, why not? I think Harry doesn’t have a price, because we want him here. He’s priceless, there is no price.
“We can talk about many things, but at the end it’s talk for talk, because it’s impossible to put a price on him.”
