Former Juve striker believes Higuaín is better than Kane

During an interview with the Turin-based edition of Corriere della Sera, former Juventus striker Fabrizio Ravanelli discussed the Bianconeri’s forthcoming UEFA Champions League double header against Tottenham Hotspur. Here is what the 49-year-old Perugia native had to say about the battle between Gonzalo Higuaín and Harry Kane:
 
“The Englishman is a true champion and a complete player. He is very good at raising the overall level of his team, though maybe he can improve in the air. I still prefer Higuaín. At the moment, he is proving to be fundamental in Juve’s general play and in the build-up phase. He seems to be a more clinical player in the box, though they are both great strikers.”
 
Only time will tell who is set to progress to the quarter-final stage of Europe’s premier club competition though, as Ravanelli eludes to, there is a good chance the goalscoring prowess of the aforementioned marksmen will prove to be decisive.
