Neville Backs Kane For Euros Final Despite Injury Concerns
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Gary Neville has expressed unwavering confidence that Harry Kane will retain his place in the England lineup for the Euros final against Spain, dismissing any speculation of dropping him. Following England’s thrilling semi-final victory over the Netherlands, Neville, a former Manchester United player turned pundit, extolled Kane’s pivotal role in the team’s success. Reflecting on Kane’s impact, Neville echoed Wayne Rooney’s assertion that Kane could be considered England’s greatest player ever, a sentiment he found difficult to dispute.
Speaking in an Interview, Neville remarked, “I had a conversation with Wayne Rooney just before the tournament began, and he boldly stated that Harry Kane is the finest England player in history. For someone with Rooney’s extensive experience with the national team, that’s high praise indeed.”


Neville continued to lavish praise on Kane, highlighting his consistency and leadership qualities. “Harry Kane has been absolutely sensational. I used to refer to him as ‘gold’ during his time at Tottenham because he always delivers. He’s a rock-solid character,” Neville emphasized, addressing Kane’s enduring influence on the pitch despite potential injury concerns.

Acknowledging Kane’s slightly subdued form in the current tournament, Neville hinted at underlying physical issues Kane might be managing. “It appears he’s not at his peak during this tournament, possibly nursing an injury he’s been trying to manage,” Neville speculated, acknowledging the striker’s resilience and determination to contribute despite setbacks.


Looking ahead to the final against Spain, Neville underscored Kane’s indispensable role in Gareth Southgate’s plans. “At this crucial juncture, Gareth Southgate will undoubtedly stand by Harry Kane. There’s a belief among some that we perform better without him, but excluding him now would send the wrong message. He’s unequivocally our leader, and Southgate places complete faith in him,” Neville asserted, emphasizing the importance of continuity and leadership within the squad.
England stands on the brink of a historic achievement in men’s international football, poised to secure their first-ever Euros title on foreign soil. The final showdown against Spain promises to be their toughest challenge yet, with Kane’s performance likely to be pivotal in determining the outcome. As England gears up for this monumental clash, Neville’s endorsement of Kane’s stature and importance underscores the team’s reliance on their talismanic captain.
