Harry Kane has left Tottenham Hotspur players fearing he will consider his future if the club cannot break their trophy duck by the end of next season.

Striker Kane was said to be “devastated and angry” at the defeat by Chelsea on Wednesday and the realisation that a shot at the Premier League title had passed him by once again.

Tottenham’s hopes of winning a trophy this season are not yet over, as they are still in the Champions League and should qualify for the quarter-finals after taking a last-16 3-0 lead against Borussia Dortmund ahead of next week’s second leg in Germany.

But his reaction to the Chelsea loss, together with his determination to add trophies to his list of personal achievements, has heightened concerns he will reassess his Spurs future at some stage.

Tottenham fell nine points behind leaders Liverpool ahead of Saturday’s north London derby against Arsenal, who are four points behind Mauricio Pochettino’s team.
