Tottenham Hotspur assistant head coach Cristian Stellini has heaped praise on star striker Harry Kane.

The England captain enjoyed an outstanding game against Manchester City.

Kane not only became Spurs' record scorer in the Premier League game, but he also helped his side to a 1-0 win.

Asked about working with Kane, Stellini told reporters: Harry Kane is football. In his DNA, you can smell every time he can show the best football you can see.

To compare one player like Harry Kane to the top in the history, you have to wait until the end of his career but we want to enjoy every day to see him like we do normally.

Into the pitch, out of the pitch, during the training, when he speaks to the players, when he speaks to the managers, he shows football. You can understand this in every moment. He is amazing to enjoy and to work with a player like Harry."
