NFL legend Eli Manning has opened the door for Harry Kane to swap football for American football “anytime,” backing the Bayern Munich striker’s long-held dream of playing in the NFL.
The England captain has never hidden his admiration for the NFL. He has spoken about potentially pursuing a career as a kicker once he hangs up his football boots. Recently, Kane admitted the idea is still “in the back of my mind,” fueling speculation about a possible crossover.
For now, Kane remains laser-focused on football. The 32-year-old is in stunning form for Bayern Munich, scoring 13 goals in just seven matches this season — eight of them in four Bundesliga outings. He is already closing in on 100 goals for the club and could soon become the fastest player to reach a century across Europe’s top five leagues if he bags a brace against Werder Bremen.
Speaking to BILD, two-time Super Bowl winner Eli Manning offered Kane a warm invitation to the NFL:
“Of course he could. The New York Giants would welcome Harry Kane as their new kicker anytime.”
The legendary quarterback’s words have only added fuel to the excitement among fans who dream of seeing Kane swap scoring goals in Europe for scoring field goals in the NFL.
Despite his NFL ambitions, Kane insists he wants to extend his football career at the highest level for as long as possible. Inspired by Tom Brady’s longevity, the Bayern star aims to keep delivering for club and country before even considering the switch.
