Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane said on Sunday that he could leave the Premier League club if it does not progress in the right direction as he wants to win trophies "sooner rather than later".

Kane has scored 181 goals for Spurs in all competitions-averaging 30 goals a season since his breakthrough into the starting lineup in 2014-but he is yet to win a trophy with the London club.

The England striker signed a six-year contract extension in 2018 that would keep him at Spurs until 2024 but admitted in an Instagram Q&A with Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp that he could not guarantee he would stay if Spurs were not successful.

"I'll always love Spurs, but it's one of them things. I've always said if I don't feel like we're progressing as a team or going in the right direction, I'm not someone to stay there just for the sake of it," Kane said.

"I'm an ambitious player, I want to improve and become better. I want to become a top, top player, so it all depends on what happens as a team and how we progress as a team.

"So, it's not a definite' I'm going to stay there forever' but it's not a no either."
