Conte Hails Kane’s Return To Form After Brighton Brace

Conte Hails Kane’s Return To Form After Brighton Brace

Antonio Conte has hailed Harry Kane’s continuous improvement after the England captain scored twice in a 3-1 win over Brighton and Hove Albion in the FA Cup on Saturday.

Kane is gradually finding some form after a slow start to the season and has scored three times in the last three games.

The 28-year-old has found the back of the net 15 times in 31 games this season but just five have been in the Premier League.

Tottenham’s fine win over Graham Potter’s men added to the good news of Cristian Romero and Son Heung-Min returning from injury, as well as debuts for winter signings Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur.

"For sure we need to try to improve the players. And I think Harry, also in the past, when in the games that he didn't score, I liked his performance,” Conte told reporters after the game.

"Harry is a player who's scored a lot in the past as a number nine, but I think what we can appreciate - me and also the whole team - is his attitude and commitment for the team.

"I think this is the most important thing for us. Then for sure, to score two goals is important because he's number nine, he's used to scoring goals and he's also improving his... we are working on the physical condition with the team.

"We're trying to improve the intensity, also during the training sessions. I think all these situations can improve the performance with all the players.

"For sure, I'm happy for him but I'm happy for the whole team. I'm happy for Son and Romero to come back into our team. It was important."
