Bayern star Harry Kane speaks in an interview about a career after retirement. After football, he would be interested in switching to American football. He already has contact with the NFL.
The position in question in the physically challenging sport is that of the kicker, i.e. the person who does not catch or throw the ball, but rather shoots with his foot for extra points and field goals. The basic movement is already familiar to Kane as a football superstar.
Harry Kane wants to practice American football
“I feel like I still have many, many years ahead of me as a footballer – but so much can happen, things change so quickly,” he said. “As it gets closer to the end of my football career, I might take a closer look at it and start practicing a bit.”
The captain of the England national team is aware of the work and dedication that is necessary to be successful in two sports. “It will also depend on what phase of my life I’m in, how things are with the children and so on…” he added.
Friendship with NFL superstar Tom Brady
In the interview, the attacker also talks about his friendship with football superstar Tom Brady, who has already ended his active career as the most successful professional in NFL history. “We’ve developed a good connection over the past few years. I’ve golfed with him, we occasionally send each other messages. He was a big inspiration to me when I was younger. He’s just a really good guy, down to earth and always there for you there if you need help or an opinion,” said Kane. “I’m happy that I can now call him a friend.”
