Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has lavished praise on his star striker Harry Kane.

The England and Spurs no.9 produced a scintillating display to put Leicester City to sword in the Premier League, scoring twice in the 3-0 victory.

Asked to compare Kane with some of his former strikers, including Zlatan Ibrahmovic and Cristiano Ronaldo, Mourinho said the England captain was a unique player.

He told reporters: "It's difficult for me to compare strikers, but I had almost in every club some of the best, and of course he's second to none.

"He's just different, different qualities. But as a striker, as a goalscorer, as a team player, as a leader, I think he is fantastic.

"It's difficult to make him any better. The better the team is, the better he can be. But it depends more on us, on the team than himself.

"He's an amazing professional, he works very well, he cannot work better than what he does during the week, he's a fantastic striker, I'm so happy and Tottenham are lucky to have him."
