This is a bizarre picture of Harry Kane

Harry Kane is on the cover of the new issue of Forever Sports magazine and this is one of the images from that shoot. I have no idea what’s going on here.

Is he supposed to be a bad guy from an episode of Miami Vice who was just told that his men have Crockett and/or Tubbs tied up in a warehouse after discovering that they aren’t actually the drug smugglers they claimed to be? Does he still live with his grandmother, not own a mobile phone, and buy his clothes second hand from members of Duran Duran? Is this a promotional image for his cover of Lionel Ritchie’s “Hello”?

Though we do not have the answer to any of those questions, we do have a great quote from the accompanying interview:

“I remember watching the 2002 World Cup in school and going in early to watch it. We had a lot of great players then playing good football and the country was excited.

“I cried when we went out to Brazil. I was a passionate fan. Whenever we lost, whether it was a penalty shootout [2004 and 2006] or in normal play [2002]… I was quite a sad kid.” 

Carrying around some weird old phone and staring off into the distance while silently holding it to his ear probably didn’t make him super approachable, either.

    Well glad he recalls crying when England went out in 2002, he might be reliving that moment very soon on the pitch this summer 😉
    Also is this him getting a call from Hodgson for the Euros 😀
