Harry Kane picks 18-year-old Tottenham youngster to be on his team in training, wins tournament with him
Harry Kane picked Tottenham teenager Alfie Devine to be on his team in training and went on to win a mini tournament with him.
Spurs have won their last two matches and are now gearing up for their north London derby clash with Arsenal on Sunday.
Tottenham are looking to stop their bitter rivals do the double over them this season as well as puncturing their title bid.
Kane did not get the afternoon off for Saturday’s FA Cup third round clash with Portsmouth and scored the winner in a 1-0 victory.
Kane picks Devine on his training team
On the back of that, it seems he was the captain of one of the teams in Antonio Conte’s training sessions during a rare clear midweek for Spurs.
Spurs were eliminated from the EFL Cup before the World Cup by Nottingham Forest, which means they do not have a game until Sunday.
That gives them a little bit more time to prepare and get their gameplan right for the visit of Arsenal, a game that Devine would not realistically expect to be involved in.
But Kane that he picked the 18-year-old in his team, indicating he was the skipper despite having club captain Hugo Lloris in his side.
In November, it was reported that Devine was likely to leave Spurs on loan during the January window, but for the time being, he remains at Spurs.
That hands him the opportunity to continue learning from the likes of Kane, who also had Japhet Tanganga, Matt Doherty and Oliver Skipp in his team yesterday.
Kane also knows the importance of loan spells, going out and playing men’s football in order to prepare a player to really make the grade.
There is nobody more professional for Devine to learn from in the Spurs squad than Kane, and it is a mark of the teenager’s quality that the England skipper wanted him on his team – and he was able to help them come out on top.
