Tottenham legend Darren Anderton believes Harry Kane has the potential to become better than Alan Shearer.

Anderton believes Kane has a more well-rounded game than the Premier League's record goalscorer.

He told 888Sport: "Harry Kane is the best striker in the world and a winner. You can rely on him and trust him. Of course he's an incredible talent but it's his character I think - his mind-set and desire – that makes him second to none. That's why he's the player he is and England captain. He's a good lad with both feet firmly on the ground and he's everything you want from your star player."

"I've had conversations with Teddy (Sheringham) about this and we think he's got that little bit of everything. Alan Shearer was an out-and-out centre forward who scored goals and bullied defenders.

"Harry does all that and then he also comes into midfield at times and links play. Or he'll go wide. So he has a little bit of Teddy as well. For me he's got the potential to be better than Shearer, I mean he really is that good. He does it all and there isn't a flaw in his game."
