Tottenham need trophies to keep Harry Kane - Shearer


Alan Shearer has warned Tottenham Hotspur that Harry Kane is likely to seek a move away if they don't win a trophy next season. 

The England captain has scored 181 goals in 278 games for Spurs in all competitions but they've failed to land any silverware since he broke into the first-team squad in 2011.

Tottenham are also set to end this campaign with a trophy when it's concluded and Shearer says that needs to change to keep Kane in North London.

"My guess is, if he doesn't win anything in the next 12 months then he has to leave," Shearer told The Match of the Day podcast.

“He'll do another year, I think, and if nothing comes in terms of trophies, then he'll be off."

26-year-old Kane has scored 136 goals in the Premier League and Shearer admits his own record of 260 could be under threat:

"It depends on his fitness, where he is and what success he's had at whatever club he's at – whether that's at Spurs or somewhere else.

“It's going to be hard for him. He's on 136 and there's a lot of 'ifs' being asked; if he stays fit or if he stays in the Premier League. It's going to be tough, but it's going to go one day.”
