Harry Kane sets England on fire, big news for Real Madrid

Kane's stance turns the country on its head

There is fire at the Three Lions. Before the match against Greece this evening in the Nations League, captain Harry Kane spoke. And he gave a huge rant against some of his teammates as relayed by Daily Express. Kane refers to the long list of absences for this gathering, which includes Cole Palmer, Jack Grealish, Declan Rice and Phil Foden to name a few. Kane is furious that several players on the selection prefer to prioritize their life at the club rather than with their country. Especially since in his case, he has always given England priority: “ I don't really like it, to be completely honest. England comes first, it comes before the club. This is the most important thing you play for as a professional footballer. » A hell of a warning to his teammates, which could have consequences. One of the explanations for this absence is that the players do not have to make an effort to keep their place in the group given that Lee Carsley will no longer be at the head of the selection in 2025.

Additional reinforcement for Real

In Madrid, finally some good news! The infirmary will soon be empty with the return of David Alaba as the placard Mark. The defender recovers faster than expected and could make his return as early as December. He was present at training yesterday, he touched the ball and made a good impression. He could make his return almost a year after his last match played against Villarreal, on December 17, 2023. A welcome reinforcement given the slaughter of injuries at Real, particularly in the defensive sector.

New executives among the Blues

The good news for the Blues is that we could imagine that the absence of Mbappé could have caused internal talk. Except that on the contrary, the subject was quickly evacuated by the team and the players united with their captain. The group expected him to be absent according to The Team. His absence from this gathering combined with the retirement of several historic executives allowed the emergence of new leaders. The group is restructuring and rejuvenating. Jules Koundé is the best example, who has become one of the major figures in the Blues locker room. Mike Maignan and Ibrahima Konaté are also pillars of this “new look” wardrobe. This new generation seeks to emancipate itself from its predecessors and has rediscovered the joy of living, as evidenced by the hazing reserved for Lucas Chevalier. Despite everything, you need experience to supervise all that, which is why N'Golo Kanté will be the captain against Israel this evening as explained The Parisian.
