The Tottenham Hotspur striker has struggled for regular football this season.

Tottenham Hotspur continued to stay in the running for the Premier League title yesterday, by claiming a 3-2 win against Everton at White Hart Lane.

Harry Kane again shone, scoring twice, whilst Dele Alli also found the back of the net.

Kane eventually came off in the 89th minute of the game, with Vincent Janssen taking his place. The Dutch striker has struggled to have any sort of impact at Spurs since making a move to the club from AZ Alkmaar in the summer.

He is yet to score from open play for the club and has just four goals for the club, all from the penalty spot.

He was still pleased with the result, even if he had little contribution, as he showed with this Twitter post:

But the mention of the Millwall game may be a sign of some desperation from the striker. The FA Cup has been one of the last beacons if light for Janssen regarding first-team action for the club this season and he will no doubt be hoping he can get a chance against the League One club.

But given the form Kane is in, Tottenham might not dare risk it.
