Neymar says one Tottenham Hotspur star is a really ‘intelligent’ player

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has been described as “intelligent” by Neymar.

The PSG star replied to a question on where he was asked to describe the Spurs ace in one word.

After mulling it over for a few seconds and checking he could only use one word, he opted for “intelligent”.

As well as the Tottenham star, Neymar was also asked about Karim Benzema, Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Luis Suarez.

He said Benzema was “classic”, while the latter three earned the moniker “genius”

You can see why Neymar did a double take on only being able to use one word when it came to describing Kane.

The Tottenham ace has so many aspects to his game that you could reel a plethora of words off.

“Goals”, “strength”, “complete”… the list goes on.

Kane has grown into one of the best and most complete strikers in world football.

He has 253 goals for Spurs, with Alan Shearer’s Premier League record firmly in his sights.

Kane also needs just four more goals in an England shirt to become the Three Lions’ all-time record goal-scorer.

The 29-year-old’s game has also evolved in recent years – sometimes it’s like he’s a No. 9 and No. 10 at once.

He’ll drop deep and look to get balls forward to Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski.

With Antonio Conte at the helm and a playing squad that has seen heavy investment, Kane will surely fancy his chances of finally lifting silverware at N17.
