Hoddle convinced Man Utd target Kane ready for Spurs departure

Tottehnam legend Glenn Hoddle thinks this summer could be the time for Harry Kane to leave Spurs.

The centre-forward is wanted by Manchester UnitedErik ten Hag, who is a huge admirer.

"Trophies are the icing on the cake for footballers. There are players out there who have won silverware because they were half decent players playing in a team that won things," Hoddle told Betfair.

"You can't say those players are better than Harry Kane so I don't think we should get too carried away with Harry not winning trophies. Harry has got the best out of his career and is continuing to do so - winning a trophy would just be the icing on the cake. We don't know if he'll get a move at 34-years-old and win his first trophy, that remains to be seen.

"I'd love to see him win one at Tottenham but if he had to move then nobody would begrudge him. It wouldn't surprise me if he thought he had to move and if the opportunity to do so is there, which it will be, then it also wouldn't surprise me to see him leave."
