Harry Kane says he hopes to become Tottenham’s greatest ever striker after bagging his ninth club hat-trick in their 3-0 win over Apoel Nicosia in the Champions League.
Kane’s perfect treble was precisely what Mauricio Pochettino needed as their hosts looked to frustrate at points, with an effort against the bar and a mistake from Hugo Lloris two golden chances for the Cypriots.
With Kane now having racked up 11 goals for club and country in the calendar month, Spurs legend Glenn Hoddle – who was commentating on the game for BT Sport – said he feels the England striker could become the best in the club’s history.
“Thank you and hopefully,” Kane told BT Sport in response to Hoddle’s comments.
“It’s great praise you know, I’ve just got to keep doing what I’m doing.
“I’m still young, I’m feeling good, I’m feeling sharp every day now I’ve just got to do the same.
“Try and help the team, try and run hard for the team and of course just try and get the goals.”
The 24-year-old also admitted that he is focussed on winning important trophies for Spurs.
“Of course [I am focused on big trophies with Tottenham],” he added.
“That is always the aim – any player will tell you that - that is what they want to do, win Premier Leagues, win Champions Leagues and win FA Cups so that is what we’ve got to try and do.
“So, as I say we’re six points out of two games and we have just got to try to push forward, [Real] Madrid next and we’re looking forward to that one.”
