Harry Kane's Response to a 6-Year-Old Asking For a Kickabout is Brilliant
- Published
We've all run around in the playground pretending to be our heroes: Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Maradona, Pele, David Dunn - but one enterprising six-year-old decided to go one better: he wanted to actually play with his favourite striker.
Oscar Loukianos thus wrote a letter to the Spurs and England star Harry Kane in his best handwriting seeing if he might be free for a kickabout at his house this Friday. His brother Andrew then tweeted a picture of it to Harry - and the goalscoring hero replied.
@hkane28 @SpursOfficial Harry can you make it to play football with my 6 year old brother on Friday haha? #COYS pic.twitter.com/cya7MIkyun

Sadly, Oscar had not really considered that Harry might already be busy - he is expected to play against Estonia for the Three Lions at Wembley on Friday night - but he did say that he would ask Roy Hodgson. So, perhaps it's not out of the question after all; he might get a tougher game in Oscar's back garden than against the Group E strugglers.
Brilliantly worded letter. I'll ask Roy Hodgson but I think I'll have to be at Wembley! Enjoy your kickabout! https://t.co/1b8v7nkFFq

Meanwhile, one Twitter wag suggested that the tweet may have come from another source. After all, Wayne doesn't really like playing on his own up front...
@AndrewLouki @deckymch @hkane28 @SpursOfficial did Rooney write this??
