Former Inter Milan midfielder Nicola Berti is confident they'll be too strong for Tottenham.

Inter will host Spurs at a sold-out San Siro in their opening Champions League game.

“Today the two teams are very close but I think Inter are still slightly better," the 51-year-old told The Independent.

“Tottenham are fantastic in attack, very good in midfield, but so-so in defence. They concede too many goals.

“Inter have a lion up front in Mauro Icardi, while the squad is a lot stronger thanks to the Croatians who have grown in confidence after reaching the World Cup Final.

“Harry Kane is the only English forward of the last 30 years who I really like. I admire him a lot because he is a complete footballer.

“He can play for the team, he is good with the right and the left foot, with the head. I don't often like English forwards but he's an exception.

“He's the best Spurs striker since Klinsmann."
