England captain, Harry Kane has named Chelsea legend John Terry as the toughest defender he has ever come up against in his career.

Kane said this during a series of quick-fire questions with ESPN ahead of England’s Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta on Friday at home, before a trip to North Macedonia on Monday

When asked who the toughest defender he ever faced was, Kane said, “I faced John Terry early in my career and I thought he was one of the best defenders in the world.

“Really smart, really intelligent,” he added.

Kane has been impressive for Bayern Munich since joining the Bundesliga champions from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer.

The striker has scored a staggering 17 goals in 11 Bundesliga matches for Bayern so far this season.
