'Get Kane on the plane' - Harry Kane flattered by Tottenham fans' campaign

 
Delight: Harry Kane celebrates his first Premier League goal against Sunderland
Tom Dutton26 April 2014

Harry Kane has said he is flattered by a fans' campaign to get him a place in Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad.

Kane hit his first Premier League goal against Sunderland earlier this month and his cool finish proved something of a catalyst.

The 20-year-old - who has represented England at various youth levels - has since scored away at West Brom and on his return to White Hart Lane against Fulham last week.

And Kane's form has sparked an initiative among some supporters to push his name forward for World Cup consideration.

"It's flattering that the fans said that. But I can honestly say I'm just focusing on scoring as many goals between now and the end of the season," he told the Sun.

"Who knows, if I get a few more in the three remaining matches, then anything is possible because stranger things have happened.

"Just look at what my mate Andros Townsend did at the start of the season. All of a sudden he was in the England squad and helps us get to the World Cup. You have to dream," he added.

"Mr Hodgson watches the matches and does give young players in form a chance. All I can do is keep scoring."
