Tottenham’s Heung-min Son reveals where he actually ranks Harry Kane amongst the greatest strikers of all time

🐻Heung-min Son and Harry Kane’s partnership at Tottenham Hotspur is the stuff of legends.

Kane would still like Son at Bayern Munich; emphasising how strong the pair’s bond remains on and off the pitch to this day. While Son hailed Kane as his favourite-ever teammate last year as well.

Alongside the Englishman, Heung-min Sonไ raised hell as the pair combined for goals galore.

𒅌So much so that in February 2022, the duo set the Premier League record (37) of combining for the most goals as a pair, eclipsing the dynamic partnership between Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba at Chelsea.

Harry Kane🐼 would often spray a pass in behind the opposition defence after spotting the South Korean icon making a darting run.

ওThe former Bayern Leverkusen winger’s electric pace would mean most defenders were left chasing their breath as he had all the time and space to put the ball in the back of the net.

Heung-min Son names Harry Kane as “top three” strikers in football history

Son marvelled at Ruud van Nistelrooy’s brillianceဣ at Hamburg, who is widely considered one of the best strikers to have ever graced the game.

But the number nine who the Tottenhamಌ wideman has played with the most over the course of his career is the England captain.

🧸In an interview with TNT Sports, Son initially revealed that Kane did not need any of his advice about the Bundesliga, as he has shown by becoming Bayern’s best player since his move to Germany in 2023.

🉐“I think, still the German league is one of the best leagues also and when we’re talking about Harry [Kane], I don’t have to give him any advice. For me, he’s the best.”

🎉Son was quizzed about where he ranks Kane in his all-time strikers list and the Spurs legend stressed the 31-year-old will always be in his top three.

🌳“Because he’s my friend, obviously, you get some bonus points. He will always be [in] my top three, it doesn’t matter what happens, he will always be in my top three.”

✃“And especially, we had such an amazing connection and played together so and we combined together for so many goals and yeah, having this kind of a striker is always a dream.”

Kane picked Son as his ultimate striker﷽ as well, which highlights the mutual respect between the two once again.

Harry Kane told Heung-min Son he was “lucky” to play with him at Tottenham

ౠAfter Son reached 400 appearances for Tottenham, the Bayern marksman sent him a video message congratulating him on the achievement.

꧙“Obviously, I’ve been lucky enough to spend a lot of those appearances with you.”

Kane sang Son’s praises🅷 by admitting that he feels fortunate to have played with such a top player and character.

🅷“So, it’s been a privilege, great guy, great footballer. Keep it going mate, I’m watching you every week, keep smashing it, keep scoring the goals, and I hope to see you soon. All the best, mate.”

ܫSon would have been gutted after Kane’s move to the Allianz Arena was confirmed.

🌠However, the pair still hold each other in high esteem.

Son and Kane’s duo was labelled “devastating”🌞, especially on the break as they put a plethora of teams to the sword.

🌳After both players retire, fans and pundits alike will look back upon their time at Spurs very fondly.
