Harry Kane has transfer decision to make with Man United and Man City lurking, but winning trophies at Tottenham and being a one-club man would mean more

It would mean more for Harry Kane to win silverware at Tottenham than with any of Europe's top clubs.

That is according to Matt Le Tissier, the ultimate one-club man who spent his entire 16-year professional career with Southampton.

Spurs talisman Kane, linked with Man United, City and Barcelona among others, could leave Tottenham this summer if they fail to qualify for next season's Champions League and go another campaign without a trophy.

The closest he has come to glory was in 2015, when Chelsea beat Spurs to the League Cup, and then in 2019 when they lost to Liverpool in the Champions League final.

Tottenham are currently six points behind fourth-place West Ham with seven games to go but have the Carabao Cup final against Man City on 25 April to look forward to.

Le Tissier revealed he prioritised his ‘happiness’ over money and trophies, something Kane could do, too.

He scored 209 goals in 540 games for the Saints and also rejected the chance to join Tottenham in 1990.

“What you have to put into perspective is what’s in the player’s mind, what’s in Harry Kane’s head," he explained to talkSPORT.

"Does he really love his football club that much that he doesn’t really want to move on and he wants to try to stay and try to win trophies at that football club?

“It all depends on where he sits in his career and what he wants out of his career. I was in a position where I was at a football club I loved, I loved the area I lived in.

“I just felt it was the best decision for me in my life to keep me the happiest I could be.

“For me, my priorities were always about being happy in life and not necessarily earning more money or winning more trophies.

“It wasn’t really something that was at the top of my list of priorities. I just wanted to be happy, I wanted to play the football the way I wanted to play football.

“If he was to go to a Manchester City or a Barcelona and win a trophy, it wouldn’t be as special to him as if he stayed at Spurs and helped them win a trophy."
