Harry Kane has insisted getting a statue outside Tottenham’s ground will not define his career, as he prioritises other feats.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has raised the possibility that a statue of Kane could one day be erected outside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Kane is the club’s record goalscorer, having recently surpassed Sir Jimmy Greaves’ all-time record. He’s also England’s top ever scorer, going past Wayne Rooney.
“A statue is not going to make or break my career,” Kane told Sky Sports. “I appreciate the words the chairman said about me, but ultimately what I can do is on the pitch, I feel like I’m giving my all in every moment, in every game and just trying to help the team as much as possible.”
The England captain added: “It’s not really my decision. I’m really respectful of the club, I’ve been here since I was 11, so almost 19 years now. I’ve been here a long time and I feel like we’ve achieved a lot in my career, even if we don’t have the trophies to show for it.”
