Congrats, Harry Kane. From The Athletic: “Harry Kane was not a born Ballon d’Or winner. That’s what makes him so special."

This is the true genius of Kane. It is not just the goals or the assists, the attitude or the ball-striking, but above all the need and the capacity to improve that makes him an all-time great. To watch Kane up close in recent years has been to have the privilege of being in the presence of mastery.
