Former Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe once pulled up for a street kickabout against Harry Kane and his school friends.

Kane was speaking on BT Sports' What I Wore series, when the England captain spoke about an incident that happened when he was 11.

Part of the Spurs academy at the time, Kane could not believe he was playing with Defoe.

He stated: "Defoe is one of my favourite strikers and I was fortunate enough to play with him as well.

“The story was that I was in the street where I lived in Chingford just playing football with about 15 of my mates and a black Range Rover pulled up and Jermain Defoe got out.

“It was crazy. I was in the academy at the time but only about 11 years old and he just got out and started playing with us for about 20 minutes.

“He signed a load of stuff, we were taking our trainers off and things like that and getting them signed, but it was amazing.

“It's a story I'll always remember. I remember talking to him about it and he remembered it. It was great for him to do that and hopefully I'll be able to do the same."

Kane continued: “You always have the dream in the back of your head about being a professional footballer.

“But at 11 years old you are just enjoying football and not thinking too much into the future."
