Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne believes that North London giants Tottenham Hotspur are still a threat without star striker Harry Kane.
The former Chelsea player spoke about Tottenham Hotspur in his pre-match thoughts ahead of the Champions League clash between Manchester City and Spurs.
Both teams meet for their Champions League quarterfinal second leg clash at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night.
The two sides met last week at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for what was their first leg meeting and it ended in a 1-0 win for hosts.
South Korean international Son Heung-Min scored the only goal of the game to condemn the Citizens to a rare defeat.
The Tottenham Hotspur win was marred by the injury to star striker Harry Kane.
The Three Lions of England captain sustained a serious ankle injury which is likely to rule him out for the remainder of the season.
Kevin De Bruyne and Manchester City would be hoping to overturn the aforementioned first-leg deficit when they take on Spurs in their second Champions League meeting of the season.
Many pundits believe that it would be a walkover for Manchester City but De Bruyne disagrees as he said that Spurs will pose enough attacking threat to worry the Citizens’ defence without Harry Kane.
