There was a very mixed reaction to Alan Shearer’s valuation of Harry Kane (Video)

At this stage we think it’s fair to say Harry Kane is not a one-season wonder.

The Tottenham striker had a slow start to this season, but has found his scoring boots again and the hype around the young Englishman has begun building once more.

The 22-year-old was left out of the Spurs starting line-up for their FA Cup tie with Leicester City on Sunday, but that didn’t stop former England striker Alan Shearer from heaping praise on the youngster.

Speaking on the BBC’s pre-game show, Shearer said he believed Kane to be worth as much as £90m, and that the Spurs forward was good enough to play for any club in the world.

Not everybody agreed with the Newcastle legend.

But as there were some who doubted Kane was worth so much, there were others who seemed to agree with Shearer’s assessment.

Regardless of what you think, we’re sure Daniel Levy was taking notes.
