Gerrard: Kane needs to think about leaving Tottenham

England and Tottenham forward Harry Kane has "a big decision to make" about his career, says former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard.

The 29-year-old, who became England's record scorer with his 54th international goal against Italy last week, has been at Spurs since 2009.

Tottenham have not won any silverware in that time.

"He's got a big decision to make career-wise," Gerrard said after England's 2-0 win against Ukraine.

"I've been there myself, where you're thinking 'is my team good enough to get me the medals? Am I going to get out of my career what I want to get?'"

Kane was the subject of interest from Manchester City in 2021 but ultimately nothing came of it and Gerrard believes he now needs to think carefully about his future options.

"It's different for me. I knew winning one trophy more with Liverpool would have meant a lot more to me than being anywhere else," he added.

"He's [Kane] got a big decision to make. I can't give him any advice on that but I bet you every single day of his life now moving forward, it's going to be on his mind."
