Moussa Sissoko has compared Tottenham teammate Harry Winks to England legend Steven Gerrard.

The 22-year-old is viewed as one of England's brightest talents given his versatility in the midfield. A trait that Gerrard was renowned for.

"At our place, there is little Harry Winks," Tottenham winger Sissoko told Foot Mercato on the exciting talents emerging in English football.

"He is a very good player who reminds me of Steven Gerrard. I think he has the same profile.

"He is evolving. From day to day, we see him evolve, progress. He is confident. He is in the England team so that proves that he is a quality player. He is the young player that will explode in the years to come."
