Klopp fears ‘world-class’ Kane more than Lukaku

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes a ‘world class’ Harry Kane poses a bigger threat to his side than Manchester United’s Romelu Lukaku did last weekend.

The Reds boss succeeded in keeping quiet the in-form Lukaku, who had scored in seven successive Premier League matches before Saturday’s goalless draw at Anfield, though the job was made easier by United’s tactics and the Belgium striker’s reluctance to engage when out of possession.

Klopp, however, believes Kane, who has 15 goals in 15 appearances for club and country and 81 goals in 102 Premier League matches in the last three years, is a different prospect.
