The England international has scored 70 goals in 137 appearances for Spurs, including 25 to lead the PL in goals last season. For England he has scored five goals in 17 appearances and he will be a key man for Spurs and the Three Lions going forward.
Kane’s importance to Mauricio Pochettino’s team is unquestioned and it was highlighted further in recent months after his ankle injury coincided with a lack of goals for Tottenham in September and October.
With Spurs losing their unbeaten record in the Premier League and being knocked out of the UEFA Champions League in the past week, finally there’s some good news from White Hart Lane.
Harry Kane is at the Lane to stay.
