Harry Kane: 'Tottenham Hotspur will try to win Premier League title for Ugo Ehiogu'

Harry Kane insists that Tottenham Hotspur will try to win the Premier League for Ugo Ehiogu after they were beaten by Chelsea in Saturday's FA Cup semi-final.

Harry Kane has urged Tottenham Hotspur to try to win the Premier League title for Ugo Ehiogu after they were beaten by Chelsea in Saturday's FA Cup semi-final.

Fans of both teams at Wembley paid tribute to Ehiogu, who died on Friday after suffering a cardiac arrest on Thursday at Spurs' training ground.

A minute's applause was held before kickoff and supporters at both ends chanted the name of Ehiogu, who had worked as Tottenham's Under-23s coach.

Mauricio Pochettino's men ended up losing 4-2 to Chelsea, and Kane confirmed that his side's ambitions would now switch to the Premier League as they bid to claim silverware for Ehiogu.

"Of course the last couple of days have been tough," Kane told Sky Sports News after the game. "Ugo was a great character around the training ground, it was just shocking news, to be honest.

"Of course we'll do everything we can to win the league for him - we wanted to win today for him and for ourselves as well.

"There are still six tough games left in the Premier League. We can't control what Chelsea do now. We just have to win as many as we can."

Tottenham next travel to Crystal Palace on Wednesday, a day after Chelsea host Southampton.
