Ryan Mason has insisted Tottenham do not need Champions League football next season in order to convince Harry Kane to remain at the club. Tottenham sit seventh in the Premier League, five points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, with five league fixtures left in their season - games Mason described as "cup finals". Asked whether Kane remaining at Spurs was contingent on being in the Champions League, caretaker manager Mason said: "I don't believe so. Harry Kane loves this club, that has been proven over the last seven or eight years. It hurts all of us as players, coaches, everyone associated with the football club.
