Live broadcast on August 4 News in an interview, England coach Southgate was asked about Kane’s future, to which he said that no matter where the player is, he is an excellent player.
Southgate said like this: “In fact, it won’t bother me, because no matter where he is, he is an excellent player and he will have a wonderful season, and will score many goals. So I think this is more of a dilemma for players and clubs. What will they do financially?”
“Kane is a player with a contract at a certain stage. Can you bear the consequences of not getting the transfer fee? Can you bear the consequences of losing players? This is a difficult thing for people who run football clubs, and there will always be some similar situations during the transfer window, won’t it?”
“If you are a fan of the Premier League, you will want the best players to play in this league if possible. But I mean, Bellingham has gone to Real Madrid. Yes, we don’t lack excellent players. In my opinion, it is a good experience for British players to play abroad.”
“Do you know what Bellingham will experience? There is a lot of pressure to play in a club like Real Madrid. You need to win every week, and you have to play with those excellent players. You train with them every day. You must become mature by living abroad like he did in Dortmund. I don’t think it has any disadvantages.”
“We have never had many players go abroad for many years before. Now we have more players going to Italy, Germany and Spain. So I think it is good for their personal development. They have their own career, so in the end England will always make decisions based on their performance in the club.”
“I can’t decide where they go and where they play. We will evaluate their situation and we will not exclude the players. We have never excluded anyone from the league where they play. We choose by comparing players in the same position.”
