Harry Kane met Tom Brady in February at the Super Bowl
He told ESPN: “The desire to play in the NFL is real. It’s something that in 10 or 12 years I definitely want to try.
“If you play in the Premier League and the World Cup and you then play in the NFL, would you then be considered one of the greatest sportsmen ever?
“It goes back to that drive to be the best. Even if I download a game on my phone, can I be the best in the world?”

“We’ve had a similar path being doubted when we were younger – maybe not being the best athletes as kids,” Kane said.
“Not many people thought he’d become that good or even play in the NFL and he went on to become the best ever.
“At the time, it gave me a real boost to say, look, anything is possible. If you have that self-belief and that drive and that hunger, you can do it.”
"If you play in the Premier League and the World Cup and you then play in the NFL, would you then be considered one of the greatest sportsmen ever?" Kane idolises six-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady and even sees some similarities between himself and the New England Patriots quarterback. "I started watching [Brady] on YouTube," he said.
