Harry Kane has not given up all hope of winning the Premier League Golden Boot this season, despite the form of Erling Haaland.
Kane has made a strong start to the current campaign, getting eight goals in nine games for Tottenham to sit second in the list of the Premier League’s top scorers so far this season.
However, he’s been overshadowed by the exploits of Haaland, who has 15 league goals to his name for Manchester City already. Given the form he’s in, it’s difficult to see Kane or any other player scoring more goals than him this season, but the Englishman hasn’t yet given up hope of doing so.
“There is a long way to go,” he said after Tottenham’s victory over Brighton.
“Obviously [there are] some top players in the league but I’m feeling good, so it is nice to keep getting on the scoresheet, especially important goals to help the team win.
“A lot of games coming thick and fast, Champions League again in midweek, so we’ve got to recover well and the whole squad has to be ready to play so yeah we’ve got to keep battling out the games.”
Kane was subbed off before the end of the match with Brighton after suffering a blow to his ankle, but the forward has insisted that it was not of concern.
“Yeah, just a knock I think,” he stated. “A sore one but definitely worth it when you win the game.”
