Harry Kane can surpass Gabriel Batistuta as the Tottenham star was compared to the Argentine great by manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Kane scored twice to lead Tottenham to a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Everton in the Premier League on Saturday.
Pochettino heaped praise on the Premier League's reigning Golden Boot winner, likening him to former Argentina team-mate Batistuta, who was the country's all-time leading scorer before Lionel Messi broke the record last year.
"Batistuta was a killer," said Pochettino. "Very strong mentality; very strong shot, great professional. You can compare.
"For me, OK, I put Batistuta there, " he said, raising one hand above the other, "and Harry there," with his other hand a little lower.
"But Harry can be better. He is a killer, Harry Kane. Look at the goals he scored the last years! Mental level? Yes. Absolutely [they are the same].
"Maybe they have different characteristics but I think he is in that level, with Batistuta."
Pochettino added: "I would put Harry Kane in with Batistuta. All that is happening to him he deserves. He is the protagonist of his life, and he deserves all the prize."
