'Being a legend is also important' - Daniel Levy sends trophy message to Harry Kane

Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy believes Harry Kane can satisfy his ambition of winning trophies with the club, while he also could have a statue built outside their billion-pound stadium one day.

Kane has just over a year left to run on his contract at Spurs, and 90min understands both parties will reassess their stance on negotiations once a new head coach has been appointed.

Though Tottenham are confident of securing Kane's long-term future, 90min reported on Wednesday that Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United could all test their resolve with offers this summer.

Levy, who is not known to give public interviews, was a recent guest at the debating society of Cambridge University and was asked whether he thinks Kane could actually win silverware at Tottenham.

"He can absolutely win a trophy at Spurs," Levy insisted.

"But being a legend is also important. The fact that he’s top scorer of Tottenham Hotspur; he’s making history.

"I hope one day that there is a statue of Harry Kane outside our stadium."

Levy went on to defend Spurs' historical success, despite the club winning just a solitary League Cup during his two-decade tenure.

"If you go back in history, Tottenham was a club that has a lot of history because it has won things," he continued.

"In recent times, it's not been where it needs to be. We're on a journey and we need to get better success on the pitch.

"But we have been in the Champions League a number of times and we almost got there, winning the ultimate, which would have been winning the Champions League."

How close have Tottenham been to winning a trophy?

Though Spurs have not won a trophy since 2008, they have put themselves in some great positions to break that duck.

Here are the closest attempts Tottenham have had to bringing silverware to north London in the meantime.
