Victor Osimhen's agent says Harry Kane must be on his way out of Spurs before his client will look to secure a move to north London.


As things stand Osimhen, who is keen to play regularly, will be behind the England Captain Kane in the pecking order at Tottenham.


The Nigeria international has been impressive for the Ligue 1 side and is a reported target for manager Jose Mourinho after netting 13 goals in the French top flight this season.


While speaking to Nigerian newspaper The Cable, Osimhen's agent Ariyo Igbayiola made it clear that first-team football is an objective for the Lille forward.



He said: 'We told Mourinho that if he wants Victor, will Harry Kane be leaving?


'If Kane is still playing for Tottenham will Victor play? Because he will always be benched for him.


'Kane is their number one striker and he is the captain of England. All of these will always work for him in the club but at Victor's detriment.


'He needs a club where he will always play full games week in, week out. Not to be kept on the bench.'
