Harry Kane says Antonio Conte has improved him as a player after the Tottenham Hotspur striker picked up the EA SPORTS Player of the Month award for March.
A league-leading six goal involvements by Kane in March boosted Spurs' top-four bid with three wins in four matches.

Kane says the upturn in form is a result of the team understanding better the demands of Conte, who was appointed head coach in November.
"I feel really sharp and fit, and obviously, have been scoring and getting some assists as well," said Kane, ahead of Sunday's home match against Newcastle United.
"Hopefully I can continue that from now until the end of the season.
"Antonio’s come in and obviously changed the way he wanted to work, and tactically changed from other managers I've worked under, so I feel like I've been learning since he's arrived.
"And I think you can see, not just in me but the team as well, trying to understand the way he wants to work, the way he wants to play.
"It's definitely improved me as a player. I can't speak highly enough of him."
