Harry Kane staked his claim to finish as the Premier
League’s top scorer with a scintillating four-goal blast in Tottenham’s 6-1
demolition of Leicester on Thursday.
Although Tottenham were unable to overhaul champions Chelsea
in the title race, Mauricio Pochettino’s vibrant young side look certain to
make a renewed challenge next term and Kane is the figurehead of that bright
future.
Kane is hunting the league’s golden boot and the England
striker was at his predatory best as he
plundered the Leicester defence four times to move to the top of the scoring
charts with 26 goals.
Everton’s Romelu Lukaku is second on 24 goals but Kane is
well on course to nail down the goalscoring prize heading into Tottenham’s
final fixture at Hull on Sunday.
South Korea’s Son Heung-Min scored twice for Tottenham, who
swept to their 11th win in their last 12 league games after Leicester’s Ben
Chilwell briefly reduced the deficit in the second half.
