With the 2023/24 campaign well underway, it appears Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham, have excelled far beyond the strikers in the Premier League.
In the summer transfer window, after 14 trophyless years at Tottenham, Kane finally made the decision to chase pastures new. Consequently, he agreed a deal with Bayern Munich, signing on the dotted line for a transfer fee of €100 million. And while his debut couldn’t have gone much worse, in the form of a 3–0 defeat to RB Leipzig in the 2023 DFL-Supercup, it looks like he’s settled down at the Allianz Arena, scoring nine goals in ten appearances.
At just 20 years of age, Bellingham has already cemented his place among the greatest players on the planet. In an eventful transfer window, in which all the big dogs in the Premier League vied for his signature, the youngster opted for Real Madrid, and he’s not looked back since.
Bagging ten goals in ten appearances, the midfielder has set the Bernabéu alight with his lightning pace and sublime footballing IQ.
According to stats collected by BritishGambler.co.uk, Kane and Bellingham’s awe-inspiring performances have left every Premier League striker in the dust.
