Tottenham striker Harry Kane has hit out at the club's ambitions after being crowned the Premier League player of the year at the London Football awards.
The striker is contracted to Spurs until the summer of 2024, but with Kane set to turn 28 in July, he is now reaching the crucial years of his career where he is at the very peak of his powers. Personal awards, he says, are becoming "bittersweet" at this stage.
Kane told the Evening Standard: "Individual awards are great, they are fantastic achievements.
"When I look back at the end of my career, I will go over it and take in a little bit more. The goal right now as a player is to win team trophies. As much as this [award] is great, I want to be winning the biggest prizes that there is to offer as a team and we are not quite doing that.
"It is one of those [situations], it is bittersweet. I would rather be winning team trophies and this award. It is what it is."
On the award, Kane added: "I am proud to win it. It means it has been a good season on the pitch, so I have just got to try and continue what I am doing.
"For sure, if I finish my career as Premier League top goalscorer and, hopefully, England top goalscorer, that'd be incredible — but it wouldn't feel as good if I didn't have a lot of team trophies to go with that. If I didn't have the Premier League or a European Championships to go with that.
"From an individual point of view, of course that's the end goal, to try and score as many goals as possible and be at the top of those charts. But, for sure, without winning the biggest trophies as a team, it wouldn't feel as good."
