Harry Kane would have left Tottenham had Erik ten Hag been appointed as Mauricio Pochettino’s successor, says Andros Townsend, but a prolific frontman is expected to stick around under Jose Mourinho and help deliver long-awaited silverware.
Transfer talk is starting to build again around the England captain as questions are asked of Spurs’ ability to deliver on his ambition.
Kane, who has seen a big-money move to Manchester United mooted, has conceded that he may have to weigh up his options if a 12-year-long wait for trophies in north London is extended much further.
