TOTTENHAM striker Harry Kane was BOOED when his name was read out – at his own stadium.
The England star was a special guest for last night’s NFL clash between Oakland Raiders and the Chicago Bears at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Kane, who is a big NFL fan and supports the New England Patriots, was pitch-side for much of the game and was even invited to the traditional coin toss.
But as his name was read out over the PA system, the 25-year-old was roundly booed.
Kane was well off colour as Spurs were walloped 3-0 away at Brighton a day earlier.
But it would still come as a shock if it was his own fans booing him and not the NFL supporters having a bit of fun.
And the action at the stadium will have brought a smile to Kane’s face after the toils of 24 hours later.
Oakland were seemingly down and out, falling 17-0 behind.
They incredibly turned it on its head to go 21-17 up before late heartbreak and a 24-21 triumph for the Bears.
SunSport reported how England captain Kane has hinted he wants to finish his sporting career playing American Football.
Kane, 25, is a huge fan of the US sport and even has his own limited edition NFL jersey – released by Tottenham thanks to the club’s close connections to the American league.
And the Spurs ace revealed he could see himself making his NFL debut one day as a kicker.
He told ESPN: “That’s real. Something that in ten or 12 years I definitely want to try.
“It goes back to that drive to be the best. Even if I download a game on my phone, can I be the best in the world?
“If you play in the Premier League and the World Cup and you then play in the NFL, would you then be considered one of the greatest sportsmen ever?”
