Tottenham's Harry Kane: 'Liverpool will be boosted by Jurgen Klopp arrival'

Harry Kane believes that Liverpool will be extra motivated against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday due to the arrival of new manager Jurgen Klopp.

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane is wary that Liverpool will have an 'extra 5%' in this weekend's Premier League clash at White Hart Lane due to the arrival of new manager Jurgen Klopp.

The former Borussia Dortmund boss was appointed as Brendan Rodgers's successor last week on a three-year deal.

The German coach's first game in charge will be against Spurs this weekend, and Kane has revealed that all the Liverpool players in the England team were itching to get back to Merseyside to work with him.

"In the first couple of games after a managerial appointment everybody tries to impress so they will probably have that little 5% extra than usual, we expect that," The Guardian quotes Kane as saying.

"The Liverpool players at England could not wait to get back to start working under him, but we have out-run every team we have played so far this season and that's a sign we're playing the manager's tactics right and are fit enough to do it, and that's what we have to do again on Saturday.

"Obviously Liverpool, with a new manager, will be up for it, but we know what we have to do."

Spurs are one point above Liverpool in the league table after eight games.
