Dustin Colquitt spent 15 seasons as a punter with the Kansas City Chiefs has tipped Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane to make the switch to American football.

The England captain has spoken in the past of potentially exploring a new challenge in the United States once his career is over, and has never hidden his love for American football.

The Bayern Munich striker has openly admitted on several occasions that he dreams of swapping football for the gridiron in the future. “It’s always in the back of my mind,” he said in the past. "I know it will be a lot of hard work. 

"I'm not expecting to just rock up and start kicking field goals. It would be a lot of practice." 

Colquitt has now placed his faith in the veteran striker, however, a player he feels has the ability and determination to succeed as he spoke to the BBC

"Absolutely, if he focused on it. He would do fantastic. I've seen some of his finishing skills. 

"I would love to actually work with him just because I love soccer, and his excitement. He's seeking this out - that's part of the fibre of his being, that he wants to try this NFL thing." 

Kane has scored 13 goals in his first seven games of the 2025-26 campaign, eight of them in just four Bundesliga fixtures. He is close to 100 goals for the German side as he continues to find the back of the net, something he could transfer to kicking across the pond in a few years time.
