Tuchel on Kane's Ballon D'Or ranking: "He should definitely be ranked higher than 13th" | OneFootball

England national team coach Thomas Tuchel was not best pleased by Harry Kane's position in the latest Ballon D'Or pecking order.

"Look, I never know when this Ballon d'Or will take place or what the rankings will look like. I'm the last person to see and know that.

“I'm not a big fan of individual awards in team sports. Harry is a true team player, he excels and he should definitely be ranked higher than 13th," he added.

Tuchel has nothing but praise for Kane, who he also coached at Bayern, and previously raved about the 32-year-old marksman to BILD.

"He is undoubtedly the best striker of his generation. He has reached a new level and is now scoring two goals per game," Tuchel said.

He emphasized that Kane is currently unstoppable and is making a decisive impact on both Bayern and the England national team.

“He's in top form; you can feel that he's full of confidence and can carry Bayern and England effortlessly on his shoulders,” he explained.
