Robert Lewandowski vs Harry Kane – Stats Show That Real Madrid Should Sign The Tottenham Star Instead
Real Madrid are keen on signing a new striker this summer and they have been interested in the likes of Robert Lewandowski and Harry Kane – both of whom are enjoying sensational form at present.
However, as per latest reports, the club could abandon their pursuit of the £200m-rated Tottenham star and focus on acquiring the £72m-rated Lewandowski’s signature instead. The thing with any Spurs player is that it is quite tough to lure them away from North London and Real have faced several speed breakers in their quest to sign him.
Hence, Los Blancos are understood to have turned their attention towards the Bayern Munich sensation. However, to be fair, signing Lewandoski will also not be a walk in the park. The German giants are known for holding on to their best players and if Real have to work hard to sign either of these two players, who should it be? Let’s compare their stats and have a closer look at who has been better this term.
Robert Lewandowski vs Harry Kane
Lewandowski has appeared 34 times across competitions for Bayern this season, in which he scored 29 goals and provided 2 assists. He averages 4.6 shots per game and has a pass success rate of 78.6%. His shot accuracy stands at 51% and he has created a total of 19 chances in the Bundesliga so far. In addition to that, the player wins an average of 2 aerial duels per game and makes about one key pass per match.
Kane, on the other hand, has featured 36 times across competitions for Tottenham and has scored a whopping 35 goals, which is roughly a goal per game. He has provided 3 assists as well and the player averages 5.6 shots per game. His pass success rate stands at a modest 73.6% while his shot accuracy is 56%.
The prolific goalscorer has also created 26 chances in the Premier League and he wins about 1.5 aerial duels per game. Furthermore, Kane makes about 1.2 key passes per match.
Verdict
Lewandowski is undoubtedly one of the greatest but this has been Kane’s season through and through. As the stats display, he has outperformed Lewandowski on every level and if Real are willing to invest time and money to pursue a player, they might as well try to sign Kane over the Bayern Munich striker.
Signing Gareth Bale from Tottenham might not have yielded the kind of results they wanted but with a talent like Kane, no club can go wrong.
