As such he wants the prizes that go with it. Not just the personal ones, although they will surely come if his scoring rate keeps pace. No, Kane wants the biggest trophies available to the team.
Speaking post-match on BT Sport at the GSP Stadium, he said: 'Of course [winning big trophies is the aim], any big player would tell you that's what they want to do. They want to win Premier Leagues, Champions Leagues, FA Cups, that's what we want to try and do.'
Of his hat-trick, his ninth for Spurs, he spoke of his personal pleasure but was keen to stress the role played by others in providing for him.

'It was a very proud night for myself and team as well,' added Kane. 'The first one was a close call. I'm not sure if it was offside or not. Toby played a good ball, I just touched it inside and was always going to take it with my left foot.
'The two in the second half, Moussa [Sissoko's] cut back a great ball, in those positions it's all about the touch. It was kind of perfect to set it up and stroked it home.
The last one, unbelievable delivery by Tripps [Kieran Trippier]. I made a late run into the box and was happy to see it go in.
'I didn't know it was nine hat-tricks. I try and score every game and it's a bonus to get three.'
