Gary Lineker has branded Harry Maguire's comments about Harry Kane as 'b*****ks' during a heated debate on the Rest is Football podcast. The exchange occurred ahead of England's World Cup Group L fixture against Ghana, with Kane already having scored twice in the tournament.

On the latest episode of the Rest is Football on Netflix, Maguire suggested that Kane was determined to match the goal-scoring feats of Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe. However, Lineker, a former England striker himself, strongly disagreed, calling the notion 'b*****ks'. Kane has netted two goals in England's opening 4-2 victory over Croatia, while Messi has five for Argentina, Mbappe four for France, and Erling Haaland also four for Norway.
