Harry Kane’s is under contract for one more year with the Tottenham Hotspur Premier League Soccer club, but is receiving attention from Manchester United and Real Madrid to continue playing soccer. The 29-year-old is unlikely to make the move to American football anytime soon and cash his +1000 odds.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have +2000 odds but have no connection or reported interest with the NFL. Both soccer superstars are nearing the end of their careers, which gives their odds the only bit of value they have considering Harry Kane won’t play in the NFL until he retires from soccer.
The rest of the players with odds are simply notable stars that NFL bettors may recognize. Don’t count any of them out though, since there has been a handful of successful NFL kickers who began playing professional soccer.
The most recent notable converted soccer player is Josh Lambo, who spent seven years in the NFL after being drafted eight overall in the 2008 Major League Soccer SuperDraft. Lambo won multiple AFC special teams player of the week awards with the Jacksonville Jaguars but retired in 2023.
Will Harry Kane have any impact on betting on the Super Bowl before 2025? It is highly unlikely considering Kane’s high levels of success playing European football.
