Kane’s keen to prove his class

-

HARRY KANE wants to prove he’s a world-class striker by dazzling in the Champions League.

The Spurs star has already cemented his position as England’s No.9.

Now the 24-year-old is desperate to prove he deserves to rub shoulders with Europe’s elite.

Speaking ahead of tonight’s Group H opener at Wembley against Dortmund he said: “I have said before I want to break into that world-class bracket. To do that you have to play well in the Champions League.

“The Champions League is a big stage. All the best players in Europe, if not the world, are here. And to be the best you have to produce your best against the best.

“I have six group games to prove that by hopefully scoring as many goals as possible and playing well.”

Tottenham have landed one of the toughest groups with holders Real Madrid and Apoel Nicosia making up the section.

But Kane said: “It will give us confidence if we get results against teams like Dortmund and Madrid.

“If we can get through the group there’s no reason why we can’t go quite far.”
