The start of this season is marked by sensational states of form among several attackers. Harry Kane, like Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland, is stacking up the goals. The three European scorers also sit at the top of the ranking of the most prolific players in the five major championships, with the Englishman in the lead (19 goals), followed by the French (15 goals) and the Norwegian (14 goals).
But where the number nine of Bayern Munich stands out is in his impact on the game. During the Klassiker won against Borussia Dortmund (2-1) on Saturday in the Bundesliga, the captain of the Three Lions was also seen orchestrating several Roten offensives from more remote positions. Enough to impress several observers.
The most complete striker in Europe
Bayern legend Lothar Matthäus had no hesitation in placing Kane at the top of the goalscoring hierarchy. “I can’t think of a better striker in the world than Harry Kane at the moment. Not just because of his goals, but also because of his versatility and the positions he plays. He demonstrated his qualities as a passer, dribbler and tackler. He is a scorer, playmaker, area player and defender at the same time.analyzed the former defensive midfielder on Sky Sports.
And the 1990 Ballon d’Or added: “I have never seen Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé tackle in their own area like Kane did in the 88th minute against Dortmund. I also don't see Haaland and Mbappé making passes of 50 meters or more. I haven't seen them send the long balls that Kane can play. »
