Kane's lap of honour was not a farewell to Tottenham, insists Mason

The 27-year-old appeared to grow emotional as he applauded Spurs fans, who were present for the first time all season

Tottenham interim manager Ryan Mason denied that Harry Kane's lap of honour after Wednesday night's loss to Aston Villa was a farewell to the club's fans.

Earlier this week, Kane told Spurs that he wished to leave the club due to their inability to consistently compete at the highest level.

Following Wednesday's game – the first this season with fans and also the final home match of the campaign – Kane took a lap around the pitch, appearing to grow emotional as he applauded the fans who remained.
