Former Tottenham Hotspur manager, Harry Redknapp has heaped praises on Harry Kane.

Harry Kane has been described by many pundits as the Premier League’s best player this season over his consistent performance for Spurs.

Chelsea and Manchester United are currently targeting him after a failed move to Manchester City in the summer of 2021.

The England captain has scored 15 goals in 18 league games for Antonio Conte’s side, including a brace and an assist in 4-0 win against Crystal Palace on Tuesday.

Kane does not only measure with the top goalscorers but his link-up play and passing range have been accentuated in the last few seasons.

“When you look at his all-round play, he’s just incredible. He can just do everything. He doesn’t just score; he holds the ball; he makes great passes; his work rate is incredible,” Redknapp told talkSPORT.

“He’s just a complete all-around player; he’s been amazing. He’s got better every year, and he’s in great form at the moment.”

Erling Haaland has finished as the English Premier League (EPL) top goal scorer for a second consecutive season as Manchester City beat West Ham 3-1 to win a fourth consecutive title.

The Norwegian striker was absent for two months of the season through injury and struggled to match the heights of his debut campaign at City when he struck 52 times in all competitions, including a Premier League record 36.

The 23-year-old failed to add to his 27 Premier League goals on the final day but still proved decisive in the run-in to help City secure an unprecedented fourth consecutive English top-flight crown.

Haaland scored nine times in his final seven Premier League appearances of the season to help City edge Arsenal to the title by two points.

Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, who himself started the season at City, was second in the top scorer standings with 22 goals, one ahead of Newcastle striker Alexander Isak.

Pep Guardiola has said he has intention to leave Man City after winning a fourth consecutive Premier League title, and sixth in seven years, on Sunday.

Phil Foden scored twice as City beat West Ham 3-1 at the Etihad to edge out Arsenal by two points and deny the Gunners a first league title in 20 years.

“When I moved here if someone had said I would win six leagues in seven seasons I would say you’re insane – no way,” said Guardiola.

“All these players for Manchester United and Liverpool and Chelsea, all these teams. Now is our period. We are part of that,” added the 53-year-old.

Guardiola has now won 15 major trophies in eight seasons as Man City manager and could add another in the FA Cup final next weekend.

The Catalan has a contract at the Etihad until 2025 and said he intends to see out at least one more year in Man City.

“The reality is I am closer to leaving than staying after eight years. We have talked with the club — my feeling is that I want to stay now. I will stay next season and during the season we will talk.”
