HARRY KANE will QUIT Tottenham at the end of the season if Jose Mourinho fails to deliver a trophy, Glenn Hoddle has warned.
The Spurs star, 27, has stayed at the North London club despite them having not won a trophy since the 2007-08 League Cup.

The club haven’t come close to a trophy since then – Champions League final loss in 2019 aside.
With Kane now entering his prime years, Hoddle has joined a hoard of fellow pundits in saying it’s now or never for Spurs, with the striker primed to quit next summer.
Last season, Kane gave a non-committal answer when asked about his future.
The England star claimed: “I get asked this question a lot, it’s one of them things… I couldn’t say yes, I couldn’t say no.
“If I don’t feel like we’re progressing as a team or going in the right direction, I’m not someone to stay there just for the sake of it.
“I’m an ambitious player. I want to become a top top player, so it all depends on what happens as a team and how we progress as a team.
“So, it’s not a definite I’m going to stay there forever but it’s not a no either.”
Now, Hoddle has told The Gary Newbon Sport Show on Punching.TV: “Harry Kane needs a bit of silverware at the end of this season if he’s going to stay.
“I think Gareth Bale’s come to win trophies for Tottenham.
“I think Son (Heung-min) is another one who wants to win something for Tottenham.
“There’s a lot of players there who put in a lot of hard work building Tottenham up in the last four or five years.
“They’ve got to the Champions League final, but they haven’t won anything.
“They haven’t got anything to show for the work that has been put in and it’s a make or break season for them.”

Last season, both Tim Sherwood and Dimitar Berbatov warned of a similar fate for Kane should Spurs go trophyless.
Sherwood told beIN Sports: “[Kane] needs to win something. So I think he’ll give it a period of time, certainly next season.
“The end of this season and next season and see if they can get closer to winning something. And if they don’t, then he will leave.”
Berbatov had previously claimed: “You see other colleagues that you are playing with in the national team, and they are winning trophies.
“You get jealous, in a good way. You’re like ‘I want to be part of that’.
“You start asking all these questions and at one moment nothing changes, you change the environment, you change the club.
“It’s a tough decision because fans will be disappointed — and so will the coach.”
