VIDEO: Bayern Munich hitman Harry Kane reveals who he backs as best finisher of all time as he snubs Lionel Messi

Bayern Munich and England striker Harry Kane has revealed his pick for who is the best finisher in football history.

  • Kane asked to select best finisher in history
  • Bayern star snubbed many big names on list
  • Named his favourite ahead of Lionel Messi

WHAT HAPPENED?

The 30-year-old striker was given the unenviable task of selecting the greatest finisher to have ever played the game. In an interview with GOAL, Kane was asked to stay silent until he heard the name of the best in football history while a list of names was read out.

WHAT KANE SAID

As the likes of ex-Celtic and Barcelona star Henrik Larsson, former Bayern Munich hero Robert Lewandowski, AC Milan legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Brazil icon Ronaldo and even Lionel Messi were read out, Kane stayed silent.

It wasn't until former Real Madrid and Manchester United attacker Cristiano Ronaldo's name popped up that Kane spoke up, saying: "Ronnie".

WHAT NEXT FOR KANE?

Kane is currently fighting to break a record set by one of those options. He has 36 goals in the Bundesliga in an impressive debut season at Bayern, putting him five behind the record set by Lewandowski during his time at the Bavarian giants. Before he turns his attention to closing down on that milestone, though, Kane will hope to fire the German side to the Champions League final as they take on Real Madrid in the semi-final second leg on Wednesday.
