Harry Kane set to captain England in the World Cup, fans react

England manager Gareth Southgate has confirmed that Harry Kane will lead the Three Lions at the World Cup this summer.

The Tottenham striker is arguably the best player in England right now and it is no surprise that Southgate has picked the 24-year-old as his captain.

Southgate explained that he wants a captain who can lead by example and Kane should be able to do that. The Spurs forward has been very consistent over the last few years and his record at the international level isn’t too bad either.

Kane has scored 12 goals in 23 appearances for his country.
