'Harry Kane will be thinking… now or never' – Pundits slam Spurs’ woeful squad and hint at transfer for England captain | The Sun
RIO FERDINAND and Peter Crouch have urged Harry Kane to leave Tottenham.
The Spurs striker, 29, suffered a disappointing night in North London as Antonio Conte's men crashed out of the Champions League following a goalless last-16 second leg with AC Milan.
Following Spurs' FA Cup exit seven days earlier, it means the Lilywhites' wait for a first trophy since 2008 will extend for at least another season.
Kane is Tottenham's all-time record goalscorer, hitting the back of the net 267 times for the club.
But an empty trophy cabinet continues to see him linked with a move away, with Manchester United interested in a summer transfer.
And Ferdinand feels the only way Spurs keep the England skipper is if he wishes to end his career as a one-club man.

Speaking on BT Sport, he said: "Whatever happens silverware-wise, Spurs fans will be hoping that Harry Kane is 'that' guy. They'll hope he wants to be 'Mr Spurs' for the rest of his career.
"If I was him I’d be looking at pastures new to get some silverware. It's not long ago playing the Champions League final and finishing second in the league, but they're a club that are moving further and further away from where he wants to be.
"He needs to go where he thinks he’ll get his hands on a trophy quickest."
Crouch then offered his opinion on Kane's future, insisting he must make a move at the end of the season or face spending the rest of his career at the club.

"I think it's now or never," said the ex-Spurs striker. "He's the club's record goalscorer, he's done everything he's been asked to here.
"Then again, the grass isn't always greener. If he leaves and then sees Tottenham win an FA cup that'll hurt him. But having said that, the likelihood of Tottenham winning things feels low.
"I do think he goes in the summer. He'll look at it tonight and the season he's had. He is in the 20-goal bracket. There's no one close to him at the club.
"I think he'll perhaps want to move on. I see him at [Manchester] United."
