Manchester United legend Roy Keane has questioned whether Harry Kane possesses the necessary traits to be the England captain.
Kane will lead the Three Lions at Euro 2020 this summer as England look to win their first-ever European Championship having already led by example for Spurs.
The 27-year-old finished as the leading scorer and the leading assist creator in the Premier League with 23 goals and 14 assists despite Spurs having to settle for a seventh-place finish.
Kane will be hoping to replicate that sort of form for his national team this summer at the Euros, but as he and his teammates prepare to take on Croatia in their group stage opener, Keane has given his verdict on the Three Lions skipper.
"The only thing I'd hold against Kane - there's a big negative I have towards Kane," Keane told SkyBet in a video alongside Micah Richards.
"I think Kane is an amazing player. I think every club should be trying to sign him. Man United have got to sign him, I don't care if it's £120 million - sign him.
"But I don't think he's a good leader. I never see him digging anyone out when he was at Spurs. I know people might go, 'Well that's not in his personality', or 'He might do it in the dressing room'. I don't think he does, and that's a big problem.
"OK, you can lead with your brilliant play, but sometimes I think I want to see another side to Kane.
"I'd love to see him get hold of somebody, and I'm on about Spurs - some players have been really poor or downing tools for certain managers. I never saw Kane digging them out.
'So that's my only hang-up with Kane as a leader and a captain."
