I’m a Tottenham fan, but Harry Kane winning the Champions League would be ‘a kick in the teeth’

Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O’Hara has declared he is desperate for Harry Kane to fail in his quest for Champions League glory this season.

The England captain left Spurs after nearly two decades at the club for Bayern Munich last summer and has been a huge hit ever since.

Kane has scored 33 goals in as many appearances for the club, with his latest two strikes coming against Lazio on Tuesday night.

They helped seal Bayern’s place in the Champions League quarter-finals to take them one step closer to lifting the prestigious trophy.

However, despite his legendary status at Spurs, talkSPORT host O’Hara doesn’t want Kane to win the competition just yet.

“I don’t know if I’d want him to win the Champions League, I wanted him to go out there and win the Bundesliga,” he said on the Sports Bar.

“He had the chance to do that with Spurs and we kind if fluffed it didn’t we?

“He’s left us and if he goes and wins the Champions League, it’s almost like a, ‘Yeah see, I told you so, Spurs weren’t big enough so I moved on and got into a better team.’

“I don’t know if I’d want Kane to win the Champions League, not yet, like next season is fine, because the first season he’s left… do you know what I mean?

“If it wasn’t for Ange [Postecoglou] coming in, we was in the mud and Ange got us out of a hole really and changed the fortunes and we look like we’re alright.

“But still, your star player leaves you because he’s basically saying, ‘I don’t want to be here no more because we’re not competing at the highest level and I want to go and win the Champions League.’

“And then he goes and wins the Champions League, it’s kind of like a kick in the teeth to Tottenham isn’t it?

“Look, I’m not going to lose sleep over it if he does, I want him to win trophies, just not the Champions League yet.”

Kane came close to winning the Champions League with Spurs in 2019, but they lost 2-0 in the final against Liverpool.

Now at Bayern, he has another chance to win the biggest prize in club football despite their poor season as they sit ten points behind Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga.

Kane has scored six goals in eight appearances in the competition this season and could prove to be the difference once again for his new side in the coming weeks.
