Spurs played out a 0-0 draw at home against AC Milan in the second leg of their Round of 16 tie, failing to overturn a 1-0 deficit from last month&#8217;s first leg in Italy.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Antonio Conte&#8217;s side also fell out of the FA Cup in the Round of 16 stage, losing 1-0 to EFL Championship side Sheffield United. They are 18 points behind leaders Arsenal in the Premier League as well, effectively ending their chances of silverware this season.<\/p>\n<p>This has inevitably led to questions about Harry Kane&#8217;s future at Tottenham. The Englishman, who is their all-time top-scorer with 268 goals, has often reaffirmed his commitment to the club. However, he has also stated that he wishes to win team trophies.<\/p>\n<p>Henry believes Kane needs to leave Spurs if he wants to win major honors. The former Arsenal and Barcelona forward said on CBS Sports Golazo (as quoted by Metro):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2018\u2018If I was him, I would go. It\u2019s up for him to choose where but I would go, he has to know where he wants to go. A player like that, a player of his calibre, should not talk about just his goals at the end of his career. If I was him, I wouldn\u2019t be able to sleep at night if all I could talk about is my goals.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u2018\u2018Listen, it\u2019s a great achievement and I have massive respect for him \u2013 I think he\u2019s outstanding. But if that\u2019s the only thing you can bring to the table at the end of your career, that\u2019s tough for me.\u2019\u2019<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Former Liverpool centre-back Jamie Carragher was present alongside Henry on the panel. The 2005 UEFA Champions League winner believes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/team\/manchester-united\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Manchester United<\/a> could be the only realistic destination for Harry Kane if he leaves Spurs. Carragher said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2018\u2018The big question now is about Harry Kane. If he doesn\u2019t leave this summer, he will stay at Tottenham for the rest of his career. I think it\u2019s now or never for him.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u2018\u2018Tottenham will always be there or thereabouts in terms of qualifying for the Champions League but will he win trophies? No. He\u2019s never won a trophy in his life.\u2019\u2019<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He went on to add:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2018\u2018Where does he go? That\u2019s the big question. There\u2019s not too many clubs there right now for him. In terms of what\u2019s happened at Tottenham, I think it\u2019s pretty negative.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u2018\u2018I think the only place he can go realistically is Manchester United. I don\u2019t want to see him there for obvious reasons but Man City have [Erling] Haaland, Liverpool have [Darwin] Nunez, he can\u2019t go to Arsenal or Chelsea.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u2018\u2018He could go abroad but he will want that Premier League goal. He will be the top goalscorer if he stays in the Premier League and that is a pretty special achievement. So if he stays in England, the only big team he can go to is Man United. But will they spend \u00a3100m for a guy who is nearly 30?\u2019\u2019<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/football\/twitter\">\n<div class=\"tweet-outer-container\" style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"tweet-container\">\n<div class=\"tweet-body\">Thierry Henry: &#8220;I think he has to leave&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Carra23\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Carra23\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">@Carra23<\/a>: &#8220;The only place he can go is Manchester United&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>@MichRichards: &#8220;Bayern&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What is next for Harry Kane? \ud83e\udd14<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote class=\"app-tweet-blockquote\"><p>Thierry Henry: &#8220;I think he has to leave&#8230;&#8221;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Carra23\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Carra23\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">@Carra23<\/a>: &#8220;The only place he can go is Manchester United&#8221;@MichRichards: &#8220;Bayern&#8221;What is next for Harry Kane? \ud83e\udd14 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1YweCRZrl6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/1YweCRZrl6<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p>Kane is currently third on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/go\/epl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Premier League<\/a>&#8216;s all-time scoring list with 201 goals.

The Englishman has scored 20 goals in 37 matches across all competitions, while also laying out four assists.<\/p>\n<p>However, Kane had netted just once in seven <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/go\/uefa-champions-league\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">UEFA Champions League<\/a> matches this term heading into his side&#8217;s clash against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/team\/ac-milan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">AC Milan<\/a> on Wednesday. The forward failed to add to his tally in a below-par display as his team were held to a 0-0 draw.<\/p>\n<p>Kane played the entire 90 minutes of the contest, but had just one shot on target from four attempts. He failed to record a single key pass, lost 10 of his 14 total duels and didn&#8217;t complete a single dribble.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham as a whole endured a poor outing against the <em>Rossoneri<\/em> across both legs. However, they definitely needed more than they got from Harry Kane.<\/p>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><template id=\"reply-input-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"reply-section-container\" parent-comment-id=\"\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"pic-near-reply-box\" src=\"\" alt=\"Profile picture\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><br \/>\n<template id=\"gif-box-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script> \nvar fbPixelFired = false;\ndocument.addEventListener(\"scroll\", function() { loadFBPixel() });\ndocument.addEventListener(\"mousemove\", function() { loadFBPixel() });\nfunction loadFBPixel() {\nif(fbPixelFired) {\nreturn;\n}\nfbPixelFired = true;\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod? \nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, \ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '952063904834769'); \nfbq('track', \"PageView\");\nfbq('track', 'ViewContent');\n}\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/football\/news-thierry-henry-urges-harry-kane-leave-tottenham-s-ucl-elimination-jamie-carragher-names-only-realistic-option?utm_source=feed&#038;utm_medium=referral&#038;utm_campaign=sportskeeda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has urged Tottenham Hotspur superstar Harry Kane to leave his current club.
