Kane has told : âI saw a lot of similarities between me and him. No one expected him to do it and itâs a story people can relate to, of hard work and never giving up.
âSelf-belief has probably been my biggest strength throughout my career. No matter what, Iâve always done what I believed is right. That could be training, that could be matches, that could be telling someone theyâre doing something wrong or not agreeing with what weâre doing as a team.
âI think when youâre confident in yourself and believe in what youâre doing, you have no fear, almost. I think back to Norwich and Leicester and I wasnât playing but doing extra training and finishing and had some players laughing and saying, âI donât know why youâre doing thatâ. All those little moments made me who I am.â
