Trump himself had earlier praised Kane as a footballer and also as a golfer. And so when pressed about it, Kane said:

“I played ‌all right, to be honest. Yeah, we played about 18 months ago. He invited me to play when I was down in Palm Beach, so yeah, when the president invites you somewhere…It was a pretty surreal experience just to meet him and obviously play golf with him.”

England captain Harry Kane has revealed he played a round of golf with President Donald Trump.

Kane confirmed that the round took place in Palm Beach, Florida “about 18 months ago”, and said that it was a “unique experience”.

Nothing to see here.

Just the England captain saying it’s a “surreal experience” meeting the US President that has spent months bombing countless countries and supplying the weapons for a genocide. https://t.co/5EtBNav1IK

I think I’m living in a different reality to everyone else. This is how bad people get into and stay in positions of power when other people (who aren’t bad) choose to go along with whatever they say and ask. https://t.co/ogcKERq3Bc

It's disappointing, especially from Kane who you would expect to know and do better.

People also need to stop infantilising footballers as if they are not aware of their words, actions, and who they interact with. Kane isn't a child, he's brought this on himself https://t.co/GWHOBYquUV

What’s wrong with footballers these days? It’s not even a lack of backbone anymore, some of them are just oddly proud of it. Kane casually talking about playing golf with Trump and calling the whole thing surreal is beyond embarrassing. https://t.co/4Jev7sCGI1

Harry Kane with one sentence tanked the PR Jude Bellingham’s pretty face and endearing personality built for England during this World Cup
