Michael Owen has delivered tactical advice to Harry Kane and England manager Thomas Tuchel, suggesting the "best finisher in the world" should prioritize scoring goals over dropping deep. The former England striker believes Kane's remarkable individual standards - 78 goals for England and 124 for Bayern Munich - could be even better if he stays closer to goal.
Owen's comments echo those of former Bayern boss Felix Magath, who stated: "Harry Kane can score goals. That's not his job to run around in midfield or at the back." The advice comes as England prepares for the 2026 World Cup, with Kane expected to spearhead their challenge as captain.
