When asked to organize a Dream Team out of 5 footballers considering only Premier League players, Kevin De Bruyne surprised some by leaving only one attacking position free. And he also drew attention that, on this occasion, he did not include Cristiano Ronaldo.
Despite the fact that on other occasions he has expressed the tremendous admiration he has for the captain of the Portuguese National Team, the Belgian international made it clear that his favorite attacker currently in English football is another.
In addition to including himself and highlighting other references such as N’Golo Kanté or Virgil van Dijk, the four-time champion of the First Division of England chose Harry Kane as the only forward of his Dream Team.
“I am going to take (Virgil) van Dijk, Kanté, Harry Kane, I put myself as the representative of Manchester City… and I would say that this year (in goal) José Sá. I think this year was very good.” pointed KDBin the dynamic that was proposed in the official media of COPA90.
THE FAVORITE FORWARD OF THE PREMIERE THAT HAS DE BRUYNE
- Harry Kane (England/Tottenham).
In the season that just ended, Cristiano Ronaldo (18) surpassed Harry Kane (17) in scoring. However, Tottenham’s 10 generated more goals because he was also among the best assists in the championship. In total, the England captain was involved in 26 goals. In addition, he is a center forward who has shown that he has the ability to be the leader in scoring and the leader in assists in the same tournament. The latter is surely what Kevin De Bruyne likes the most.
Undefeated Data. Harry Kane equaled Alan Shearer as the English striker who has led the most number of times (3) in scoring in the Premier League. He still has time to break the tie and reach Thierry Henry’s absolute record (4).
Did you know..? Cristiano Ronaldo is the only player in history who has been the leading scorer, MVP and champion in the English Premier League, Spanish League and Italian Serie A.
Undefeated data. Kevin De Bruyne finished the 2021/22 season as the midfielder with the most goals (15) in the Premier League. Cristiano Ronaldo, who was TOP 3 in the total ranking of top scorers, scored 18 goals for Manchester United.
Did you know..? Kevin De Bruyne has won 11 official titles with Manchester City. He has already lifted all the possible trophies in English football, but the account that is still pending is European glory in the UEFA Champions League.
