‘Ludicrous if Kane thinks he can be NFL kicker’ – Spurs star told he is in for ‘a rude awakening’

Gridiron legend Morten Andersen has warned the Tottenham striker that transitioning from one sport to another is more difficult than it looks

Tottenham striker Harry Kane has been warned he is in for “a rude awakening” if he thinks he can become an NFL kicker, with kicking legend Morten Andersen considering the suggestion to be “ludicrous”.

England captain Kane is an avid follower of the American variety of football and was among those in attendance for the first game staged at Spurs’ new stadium between the Chicago Bears and Oakland Raiders.

He has previously expressed an interest in making a transition from one major sport to another when the day comes to hang up his soccer boots.
