England forward Harry Kane thanks Chelsea boss Antonio Conte for his recent "kind words", but insists that he is fully focused on Tottenham Hotspur.

Harry Kane has thanked Chelsea boss Antonio Conte for his "kind words", but the forward insists that he is fully focused on Tottenham Hotspur.

Last week, Conte branded Kane "one of the best strikers in the world", and revealed that he would jump at the chance to sign the Tottenham forward in the future.

Kane has welcomed the praise from the Italian, although the Englishman has said that he is 'focused on what his own manager thinks' ahead of the start of the new campaign.

"Obviously it's kind words. But I'm focused on my team and what my manager thinks. I'm out here concentrating on what I need to do, and being fit for the new season," Kane told reporters.

Kane netted 35 times in 38 appearances in all competitions for Spurs last season, while the England international has 99 goals in just 165 first-team matches for his London club.
