Harry Kane was asked to name one young player to keep an eye on over the coming years, and he picked another Englishman over Tottenham’s Mikey Moore.
In an interview, Kane was asked to pick one young player to watch for over the coming years, and one imagines that it is not an easy question for the former Tottenham man to answer.
He has seen a number of talented youngsters coming through the ranks at Spurs, particularly in his final year or two at the club. Mikey Moore made the step up into first-team training the summer Kane left N17.
Similarly, the centre-forward also plays alongside some of the best young players in the world at Bayern Munich.However, Kane did not name any Spurs or Bayern player, instead picking out someone who has recently spent time with as part of the England set-up.
When asked which young player is worth keeping an eye on, the 31-year-old told Goal without hesitating: “Adam Wharton.”
The 20-year-old has won many admirers since moving to Crystal Palace at the start of this year, taking to the Premier League like fish to water, and Kane certainly appears to be a big fan of his.Interestingly, it was reported during the summer transfer window that Spurs had been extremely impressed with Wharton’s displays at Selhurst Park and were considering a move for him (TBR Football).
Oliver Glasner’s men manage to keep hold of the Blackburn Rovers academy graduate, but it will be interesting to see if Tottenham rekindle their interest in the England international in January, particularly given the Eagles’ struggles this season.
