Sheringham warns Spurs ace Kane: You only get one career

Teddy Sheringham has urged Harry Kane to think carefully about staying at Tottenham.

Kane hinted back in March he could be prepared to move on this summer if his current club are unable to match his ambition.

Sheringham faced a similar scenario during his time as a Tottenham player, and eventually jumped ship to Manchester United in a £3.5million deal in 1997.

He told Sky Sports: "There are similarities [between him and Kane], but you have to look at Tottenham where they are and where they were when I was playing for Tottenham.

"The ambition had been sucked out the club when I was playing for Tottenham, we weren't really going places. At least with Tottenham at the moment they're getting into the top four. They're challenging for things. In the Champions League final not so long ago.

"He's got to weigh up his situation, does he want to leave? Is there going to be top players coming to Tottenham to play with him? Or is he going to have to go elsewhere to play with top players?"
