If England wins the World Cup and is awarded the Jules Rimet Trophy from President Donald Trump, it won’t be the first time Harry Kane will have met the Commander in Chief.
Kane, 32, revealed Friday that he played golf with Trump about a year and a half ago in Florida.
“He invited me to play when I was down in Palm Beach. When the President invites you somewhere, it was a pretty surreal experience just to meet him and to play golf with him,” Kane said Friday, according to the New York Post.
