Now not the time to think about records, says Spurs Harry Kane
Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane scored his 200th goal for the club in Thursday`s 3-1 Europa League win at Bulgaria`s Ludogorets but he says records are not his focus right now.
Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane scored his 200th goal for the club in Thursday`s 3-1 Europa League win at Bulgaria`s Ludogorets but he says records are not his focus right now.
Kane is only the third Spurs player to reach the milestone and the 27-year-old is eight goals behind Bobby Smith and could threaten Jimmy Greaves`s record of 266.
"These are great things but hard to take in while you`re playing," Kane told the club`s website. "Once you finish your career you take it all in."
Kane`s first goal for the club was also in Europe`s second-tier club competition, a neat finish late in the game against Shamrock Rovers in 2011.
"Time goes so quickly and it feels like yesterday that I scored that first goal," he added. "It`s a great achievement to reach 200 and hopefully there`s a few more left. Let`s keep them coming."
Spurs manager Jose Mourinho said Kane could go on and replace Greaves as Spurs record scorer.
"What he`s achieving in the Premier League and all competitions is great for such a young guy," Mourinho added. "Can he become the record scorer? I believe he can. It`s just a matter of time."
