Clement Lenglet is the player in question; he spent the summer on loan with Tottenham from FC Barcelona.
Prior to joining PSG, Lenglet played with Messi for several years. Now, Lenglet has compared Harry Kane to the Argentine:
Lenglet, a defender on loan from Barcelona to Spurs, says, “When you remain a long time in the same location and you do so many good things with the club it means you become a part of this team.” “The club is linked to your face. Messi will always represent Barcelona to me.

The same applies to Harry. It’s challenging to see Harry representing an other nation or team. Harry is a huge player, Harry is a big part of Tottenham, and Tottenham is a great club. We talk a lot about the player, which is crucial since we are players, but I also value his character as a man. He is a fantastic role model for all of his teammates.
Lenglet also discussed Tottenham’s difficulties this year playing against the Big Six:
Lenglet acknowledges that against these kinds of teams, “We struggle.” To be a top squad, we must make progress in that area. The next action is that. We are focusing on improving in these games because, in my opinion, doing so is the next stage in becoming a really, really good squad.
This weekend, Tottenham does not play a team from the top six, but they still have a difficult test against Newcastle, who currently have the strongest defense in the division.
