Harry Kane has named Jermain Defoe as the best finisher he’s seen when asked to construct a complete striker.
Many will argue that Kane himself is the complete player, with the 30-year-old possessing almost every attribute that one looks for in modern-day number nines.
The former Tottenham man’s ability to finish with either foot is up there with the best while he is also fantastic in the air and elite in using his strength to hold up the ball.
Additionally, Kane is also a rare breed of centre-forward who possesses outstanding vision and passing range, often being able to drop deep to pick up the ball and pick out runners with inch-perfect through balls.

Spurs Web Opinion
Defoe was an unbelievable finisher but he was also prone to missing a few chances. Kane is undoubtedly the best finisher that I have seen play for Spurs. There is no other player in world football who I would back more in a one-on-one situation with the goalkeeper.
