Townsend: Tottenham can achieve success with star striker Kane

Tottenham winger Andros Townsend has urged teammate Harry Kane to kick on next season.

The 21-year old striker enjoyed a breakout campaign with Spurs last term, netting 21 Premier League goals for a total of 31 in all competitions.

Townsend sees every day what Kane is capable of and is hoping the England U21 ace can lead the north London outfit to success in the future.

"We've seen over the years in training how good he is at finishing," Townsend told Sky Sports News HQ.

"Hopefully next season he can go on to the next level and help us achieve something."

Kane is preparing for the 2015 U21 European Championships in the Czech Republic as Townsend gets set for the England senior team's friendly with the Republic of Ireland in Dublin on Sunday.
