Hugo Lloris: 'Harry Kane is the main player at Tottenham Hotspur'

Hugo Lloris insists that Harry Kane is the main player at Tottenham Hotspur much like Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid or Lionel Messi at Barcelona.

Hugo Lloris has claimed that Harry Kane can fire Tottenham Hotspur to glory just as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have done for Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Kane netted his sixth hat-trick of 2017 against APOEL on Tuesday as Spurs came away with a 3-0 victory in their second Champions League group game.

The 24-year-old this term has three more goals more than Ronaldo and only trails Messi by one, and Spurs captain Lloris believes that the Englishman can go on to become one of the best players in the world.

"In every big team, you have a big goalscorer. In Tottenham, it is Harry Kane," the Frenchman told Sky Sports News. "I think for him he has got a lot of things to prove in the Champions League. He shows his quality and skills at the moment.

"Five goals in two games is fantastic and hopefully he will carry on in the same way for him and the team. We are not surprised about Harry, we know his talent, his skills, his aptitude to score goals and important goals. He is our main player, like in top teams, in Real Madrid you have Ronaldo, in Barca you have Messi.

"Ronaldo and Messi - they are from another galaxy but Harry has got so much potential to become one of the best. I am not worried - he is connected with the world, he is very calm, he is a hard worker and he is very ambitious. That is something very important in football."

Kane's Spurs tally currently stands at 108 goals from 173 appearances.
