Harry Kane NFL odds have entered the conversation after the England captain revealed that he could seriously explore becoming a kicker later in his sporting career.
The Bayern Munich striker also suggested that a future move to Major League Soccer could help him pursue opportunities in both sports. Although the plan remains speculative, Kane believes his penalty-taking experience gives him a foundation from which to begin preparing for an NFL trial.
An MLS move looks far more realistic than Kane earning a place on an NFL roster...
Below, we have compiled hypothetical Harry Kane NFL kicker odds, possible MLS destinations and the NFL teams that could be most likely to offer him an opportunity.

Why is Harry Kane considering becoming an NFL kicker?
Action Images via Reuters/Paul Childs
Kane has been interested in American football for several years and is a well-known New England Patriots supporter. He has now indicated that an NFL attempt is something he could explore more seriously once his elite football career begins to wind down.
The 33-year-old compared the pressure of placekicking with taking penalties for Bayern Munich and England. Kane is England’s record goalscorer and has regularly taken penalties at the highest level, giving him experience of producing an accurate strike in high-pressure situations.
He also acknowledged that the transition would require considerable preparation. Kane suggested he could spend between six months and a year training before attempting to earn an NFL contract rather than expecting his football reputation to secure an immediate roster place.
Any switch remains several years away. Kane is close to agreeing a new Bayern contract and has said his priority is continuing to play football at the highest level for as long as possible. His current achievements are also assessed in our Ballon d’Or odds and Sports Personality of the Year odds coverage.
Could Harry Kane succeed as an NFL kicker?
Kane’s striking ability would give him a useful starting point, but kicking an American football involves a different technique from taking a penalty. NFL kickers must adapt to the shape of the ball, a shorter approach, precise snap timing and the need to generate elevation over an onrushing defensive line.
They must also kick from different distances and angles while working with a long snapper and holder. A successful trial would require Kane to demonstrate repeatable accuracy on field goals, extra points and kick-offs rather than simply showing that he can strike the ball powerfully.
Brandon Aubrey provides a relevant example of a player moving from association football into American football. The former MLS draft pick established himself in the USFL before earning a place with the Dallas Cowboys, showing that a developmental route may be more realistic than moving directly into an NFL starting role.
There is also an important difference between signing a contract and playing during the regular season. A team could invite Kane to a training camp or sign him to a short-term deal without selecting him for its final roster, which is why our hypothetical NFL appearance odds are longer than the price on him signing.
Harry Kane MLS team odds
A move to Major League Soccer represents the most realistic part of Kane’s proposed American adventure. Our Harry Kane MLS odds assess where he could play if he leaves European football later in his career.

Hypothetical odds compiled by Oddspedia on 29 September 2026. These prices are not available to bet on.
Inter Miami
Inter Miami heads our possible destination odds because of its record of attracting internationally recognised players. The location, commercial opportunities and profile of the club could all appeal to Kane during the closing years of his football career.
Miami would also put him in the same market as the Miami Dolphins. That would not guarantee an NFL opportunity, but it could make specialist coaching, training and local interest in a cross-sport attempt easier to arrange.
New England Revolution
New England Revolution provides the clearest connection between Kane’s two ambitions. The Revolution and Patriots are both owned by the Kraft Group, while Kane’s support for the Patriots is already well established.
A move to New England could allow him to play in MLS while developing his kicking technique within the same wider sporting organisation. Whether the Patriots would have a genuine roster need at the right time would still matter more than Kane’s profile or club allegiance.
Los Angeles FC
Los Angeles has the commercial appeal and sporting infrastructure to attract another major European player. LAFC has previously recruited established international names and could offer Kane a high-profile final stage to his football career.
The presence of the Rams and Chargers would also create two possible NFL connections within the city, although both teams would assess him according to their competitive kicking needs rather than his MLS destination.

New England Patriots
The Patriots are the obvious narrative selection because Kane supports the team and has spoken about his admiration for former quarterback Tom Brady. The connection would generate considerable attention if Kane eventually pursued an NFL opportunity.
New England Revolution’s shared ownership strengthens the hypothetical route, particularly if Kane first joins the MLS club. However, NFL teams cannot afford to use a roster place purely for publicity, so his accuracy and the Patriots’ kicking situation would determine whether the move became realistic.
Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins become an interesting possibility if Kane finishes his football career with Inter Miami. Remaining in one city would simplify some of the practical demands involved in training across the two sports.
The seasons overlap, however, and NFL preparation begins long before the regular season starts in September. Kane would find it extremely difficult to complete a full MLS campaign while also attending an NFL training camp and competing for a roster place.
New York or Los Angeles
New York and Los Angeles each provide two NFL teams alongside established MLS clubs. That would create more potential combinations than most American markets and could make it easier for Kane to access specialist coaches.
Neither city provides a straightforward route into the NFL. The Giants, Jets, Rams and Chargers would still need a competitive reason to consider him, while Kane would have to outperform experienced kickers who have trained specifically for the position.
Could Kane play in MLS and the NFL at the same time?
Kane has raised the possibility of connecting an MLS career with an NFL attempt because both competitions are based in the United States. In practice, playing complete seasons in both sports would be exceptionally difficult.
The MLS campaign generally runs from early in the year into the autumn, while NFL training camps begin during the summer and the regular season starts in September. That creates a direct clash during the most important period for a player attempting to earn an NFL roster position.
A more realistic sequence would involve Kane playing in MLS first, then leaving football and spending several months training exclusively as a kicker. He could subsequently attend trials, a specialist kicking camp or an NFL preseason programme without balancing weekly MLS matches at the same time.
Harry Kane NFL odds prediction
Most plausible outcome: Kane to play in MLS before retiring (hypothetical 2/1)
An MLS move is considerably easier to envisage than Kane making a competitive NFL appearance. Major League Soccer has a long history of attracting leading European players towards the end of their careers, and Kane has now introduced the possibility himself.
The NFL ambition faces more substantial technical and logistical obstacles. Kane would need specialist preparation, an available roster opportunity and enough time away from football to prove that his kicking could remain accurate under genuine American football conditions.
Signing with an NFL team before 2030 looks particularly unlikely. Kane has described the idea as something that could develop over the next five or six years, while his immediate focus remains Bayern Munich and elite football.
Our hypothetical 2/1 MLS price therefore represents the most plausible outcome assessed in this article. It is an editorial estimate rather than a recommended bet, and there is currently no bookmaker market available at that price.

Harry Kane NFL and MLS odds FAQs
Could Harry Kane become an NFL kicker?
Harry Kane has said he could seriously explore becoming an NFL kicker later in his sporting career and would spend six months to a year preparing. His penalty-taking experience provides a useful foundation, but American football requires a different technique and precise coordination with a snapper and holder. Kane would still need to earn a contract and roster place through competitive trials.
Will Harry Kane play in MLS?
Kane has suggested that a future MLS move could help connect his football career with an attempt to become an NFL kicker. He remains focused on Bayern Munich and is close to extending his contract, so any move to the United States is unlikely to be imminent. Our hypothetical Harry Kane MLS odds make an American move more plausible than an NFL appearance.
Which NFL team could Harry Kane join?
The New England Patriots provide the clearest narrative because Kane supports the franchise and New England Revolution shares the same ownership group. Miami, New York and Los Angeles offer other possible links between MLS and NFL teams in the same market. Any eventual destination would depend primarily on roster needs and whether Kane could demonstrate NFL-level accuracy during trials.
Can a football player become an NFL kicker?
Players with association football backgrounds can become American football kickers, but success requires specialist training rather than simply transferring an existing striking technique. Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey previously pursued professional football before developing through American football’s alternative leagues. Kane would need to adapt to a different ball, approach, snap timing and the pressure created by an NFL defensive rush.
