David Beckham had a controversial reaction when he had a strange reaction to Harry Kane’s statement

The striker, who is world-class in his own right, has played with stars such as Jude Bellingham and Wayne Rooney for England.

At club level with Bayern Munich and Tottenham respectively, Jamal Musiala and Heung-min Son have been teammates of his too.

Countless other talents have also shared the pitch with him but, if the 30-year-old had the choice, it’s Beckham he’d love to star with.

Speaking to ITV Sport ahead of Bayern’s Champions League semi-final clash against Real Madrid, which is live on talkSPORT, he was tasked with answering a series of questions.

One saw Kane being asked if he could play with any other player from any era who would he go for, and he replied: “I think David Beckham.

“I was a big David Beckham fan, [the crosses] that’s what I mean, as a striker to play with Beckham must have been top draw.”

Had such a partnership ever come to fruition, then England fans could have been treated to potentially the greatest ever football duo.

Beckham is regarded as one of the best crossers and passers of the ball in the history of the game, assisting 267 goals in 724 appearances throughout his career.

Couple this with the 402 goals Kane has netted so far, then it’s a partnership that would undoubtedly cause nightmares for defences.

However, Beckham called time on his glittering career – one that saw him win six Premier League titles and the Champions League with Manchester United, as well as a LaLiga title with Real Madrid and a Ligue 1 crown with Paris Saint-Germain – in 2013.

This came just before Kane’s breakthrough season at Spurs, with the 30-year-old now regarded as one of the best strikers in the world.

Although Bayern have been underwhelming overall, the England captain has enjoyed an excellent debut season on a personal level in what has been his first campaign outside of his homeland.

Kane has scored 44 goals in as many appearances across all competitions for the German giants, assisting a further 11.

Bayern missed out on the Bundesliga title but Champions League glory is still up for grabs, which would see their star striker win the first major trophy of his career.

Had Kane been able to play with Beckham, though, there’s little doubt that he’d have accumulated many honours by now.
