Tottenham Hotspur forward Harry Kane has expressed his delight after being nominated for the PFA Player and Young Player of the Year Awards.
Kane has enjoyed a remarkable breakout season for Spurs this term, having scored 29 goals in all competitions thus far. His 19 Premier League goals and four assists have kept Mauricio Pochettino’s side in the hunt for a spot in European competition next season.
On the back of his stellar displays, the 21-year-old also earned a call-up to the England national team and scored on his debut against Lithuania at Wembley last month.
The youngster has expressed his delight at being shortlisted for the prestigious individual awards.
“I’m delighted to be nominated for both awards, to have that appreciation from fellow players is a huge honour and it shows you are doing the right things”, he told his club’s site.
