Kane: Bellingham the Ideal Partner for the National Team

England captain Harry Kane said that Jude Bellingham is the “perfect partner” for him in the attack of the Three Lions, praising the strong understanding between them on the pitch and the freedom the coaching staff gives players to interchange positions and move into different spaces. Speaking ahead of yesterday’s match against the Czech Republic at Wembley Stadium, Kane said: “A player can play as a central striker, while another can drop into the playmaker role, and Jude can play as the main striker, while I can operate in midfield. This makes it very difficult for opponents to read and track our movements.” The England captain added: “I think Jude is the perfect partner for me. We enjoy playing together, and we have great freedom to move and interchange positions, which gives us plenty of options in the final third.” Kane continued about his young teammate: “Jude is an exceptional player who can play in multiple positions, and this flexibility helps the national team greatly.”
