Jan Vertonghen: I wouldn't swap Harry Kane, even for Cristiano Ronaldo

LONDON -- Tottenham Hotspur defender Jan Vertonghen says he would not swap Harry Kane for any striker in the world, even Wednesday's opponent Cristiano Ronaldo.

Kane has been directly involved in all seven of Spurs' Champions League goals this season, scoring five, but he is a doubt for the group game against Ronaldo's Real Madrid with a hamstring strain.

Like the 1-1 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu a fortnight ago, the meeting at Wembley is being billed as a contest between two-time Premier League top scorer Kane and Ronaldo, who has won the Ballon d'Or four times and won FIFA's The Best award for the second year running earlier this month.
