Starting on Twitter before moving over to Instagram, the forward tackled questions on a variety of topics with some catching the eye more than others – former England and Chelsea skipper Terry, however, was one player who reaped the rewards of the session.There are a few who have been the toughest I have faced in my career,’ Kane said in a video on his Instagram story.
‘Early on facing John Terry, [he was] just a really smart defender, knew where to put his body, knew how to stop my runs, so that was a great learning curve.’
Kane crossed paths with Terry – who made nearly 500 appearances in the Premier League for Chelsea – early in his career before the now-41-year-old retired in 2018.He did however also go onto mention Chiellini, who infamously joked about Tottenham’s poor history before helping cost England a Euro 2020 win, also crediting the defender’s intelligence.
‘And then Chiellini,’ Kane added. ‘I obviously played against him against Italy and against Juventus.
‘Again, really smart, strong, and physical.’Kane answered several other questions in the session, including what it’s like playing with Spurs team-mate Heung-Min Son, who Kane branded a ‘fantastic player and a fantastic person’.
He did however tag England all-time top scorer Wayne Rooney as the best player to play with, before saying he was ‘really excited’ for this winter’s World Cup.
While the Rich List details the England captain’s earnings from football, he has also earned a significant amount from a ‘side business’ away from the sport.
According to The Sun, Kane has accumulated a property portfolio that, as of February 2023, is said to be worth £13.1 million.
It is said that the company is called Edward James Investments – Edward being Kane’s middle name – with his parents and brother/agent Charlie helping him to run it.
A source told The Sun: “Harry is as astute with his money as he is with his finishing.”
