Though soccer does end up beating football in terms of popularity and numbers, Harry Kane’s admiration for Tom Brady sure leads the fans to believe that the sport has made quite the waves in terms of global audience. Even if the NFL and its intricacies aren’t too well-known, the name of Tom Brady and his success sticks out for the sport as does his reputation. That’s exactly what happened when Harry Kane was presented with the opportunity to autograph Brady’s magazine.
Harry Kane, the captain of the England soccer team, was all smiles on seeing the surprise appearance of Tom Brady’s magazine as he signed copies of Euro 2024 magazines for some lucky few fans. The captain went on to talk greatly about the GOAT of the NFL and had quite an amount of respect for the New England Patriots legend. Additionally, seeing as how 15th July is the final between Spain and England, Brady wished Kane all the very best to win the trophy in an effort to repay Kane’s compliments.

Harry Kane was posed with a challenge of ‘Will They Sign?’ where someone gave him a magazine of Tom Brady’s ‘TB12’ and he had the choice to autograph or not. With no surprises whatsoever, Kane ended up beginning the process of signing, “Ahh, what a man! TB12, what a man. I don’t want to sign on him, I will sign on the side.” Brady ended up responding in kind and captioned his story with, “The feeling is mutual! Bring it home today! @harrykane” The 2 stars look to be sharing a great equation and now that Brady has also stepped foot into the football world with his investment in Birmingham City, F.C., maybe they might end up meeting on this path sometime again in the future too. With that being said, here’s what Kane had to say about Brady and his talents in detail as he signed the TB12 magazines with great enthusiasm.

By being miles and miles ahead of any other NFL player, Tom Brady made his mark as more than an elite athlete rather than just a football player. There hasn’t ever been a player to collect 6 Super Bowl rings with a single team and that might be the case for a long time yet to come. As such, Brady’s story and the journey to being one of the best to ever step foot on the gridiron inspires millions across the world, including Harry Kane, who couldn’t stop talking about how the former QB has been his inspiration for a long time.
While responding to a question about whether he’s a Brady fan or not, Kane went on a rant and said, “Yeah, I love Tom. Tom’s a big inspiration of mine growing up and I’ve been lucky enough to be friends with him now. Just a really good guy. Just a really down-to-earth person. And obviously, the best, to ever play in his sport. So I could only learn of someone like that and inspire and try and be like someone who’s done what he’s done.” Thus, Brady continues to be this beacon of inspiration to athletes and fans alike to this very day. However, if Kane goes on to win the Euro 2024 Cup today, he might just inch closer to becoming a towering soccer player just like his idol, Tom Brady.
