Tottenham ace Kane branded 'king of the divers'

Former Chelsea and England striker Chris Sutton has branded Tottenham ace Harry Kane a "diver".

Kane won a penalty in victory over Everton yesterday.

Sutton said, "I think Harry Kane is the Kking of the divers, isn't he? He initiated the contact, he was already on his way down with Jordan Pickford.

"We've seen it time and time again. Listen, I get it, he's the England captain, but he's a diver. I think Everton were hard done by."

In discussions with Robbie Savage, Sutton added: "Look at it again Rob. He's really cute in the way that he does it but he's super alert, he takes the touch. You look closely Rob, you haven't looked at it closely, he's already on his way down and he initiates the contact. It's a dive."
