Tottenham Hotspur superstar Harry Kane has reiterated his interest in attempting to become an NFL kicker.

The 29-year-old has long expressed a want to pursue the left-field career transition once he hangs up the soccer cleats.

Speaking to Pro Football Hall of Famer Michael Strahan on GMA Wednesday, Kane said it was a future worth looking into.

‘It’s something I want to definitely explore,’ Kane remarked. ‘I know it’ll be a lot of hard work; I’m not expecting to just walk up and start kicking field goals.

‘It’ll be a lot of practice, a lot of hard work, but, yeah, it’s something I’d love to do. The NFL is something I’ve been following for about 10 years now, and I love it. So, I’d love to give it a go.’

Kane has been present at several NFL London games throughout the years, including 2022’s Vikings vs. Saints thriller at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

England’s all-time leading scorer is a big fan of Tom Brady and was even on-hand to witness the Patriots win vs. the LA Rams in Super Bowl LIII.

‘That’s real. Something that in 10 or 12 years I definitely want to try’, Kane said of his willingness to try kicking, via ESPN, in 2019.

‘It goes back to that drive to be the best,’ he says. ‘Even if I download a game on my phone, can I be the best in the world?’

‘If you play in the Premier League and the World Cup and you then play in the NFL, would you then be considered one of the greatest sportsmen ever?’

Hall of Fame placekicker Morten Andersen provided context on Kane’s dreams in the months after Kane’s admissions that year.

Despite a collectively poor season for Spurs, Kane still scored 30 Premier League goals in 38

‘The initial trajectory on the ball, they have a hard time getting the ball up,’ he told Mail Sport.

‘I’m not saying Harry Kane can’t do it, and I don’t think it’s ridiculous – but before we start crowning him as the greatest kicker in the world, let’s go through the exercise of vetting that.

‘I think he needs to put on a different hat mentally – and firstly, different equipment! Remember, he kicks in a shorts and a shirt, not pads and a helmet.

‘It changes things, the precision with which you have to deliver the ball under great duress in a very short period of time – the whole timing aspect of it, there’s skill involved.’
