Striker Harry Kane says Tottenham Hotspur’s chances of winning the Premier League are out of their hands but the team will not give up on efforts to overhaul leaders Leicester City in the final three games of the season.
The Foxes opened a seven-point lead at the top of the standings after second-placed Spurs drew 1-1 with West Bromwich Albion on Monday and Claudio Ranieri’s men could win the title if they beat Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.
“It’s disappointing,” Kane, the league’s top scorer with 24 goals, told British media. “All we can do is move forwards and see what happens this weekend. I don’t think it’s over. There are still three games left. If Leicester lose the next game, you just never know, with the pressure.
“Obviously, it is now going to be a lot, lot harder, and it’s not in our hands. It’s in Leicester’s hands. If they win, they win. We’ve just got to go out and win our remaining three games.”
Tottenham have not tasted success in the league since they won the title in 1961, while Leicester have never won a top-flight crown. “It’s been a fantastic season so far, and we can’t get too down about the West Brom result,” Kane added.
“It’s a gutting feeling. We wanted to win the game but there are still three games left, and we can’t just fold it in. We’ve got to keep fighting until the end.”   

Mahrez says Leicester still have to work for league title
Meanwhile,  playmaker Riyad Mahrez and his Leicester City team mates are taking nothing for granted, despite the club being just one win away from winning a maiden Premier League title.   “It is not done yet,” Mahrez told the Daily Telegraph.
“We have to keep going and focus on every game because it is difficult. We don’t need to be nervous. This is just a bonus for us. Nobody expected us to be where we are so this is a bonus. If we do it, we do it. If not, that’s life,” the Algerian international added.
“Like I said, we are not a big club. We don’t have to win the Premier League.”
Mahrez, who was named PFA Player of the Year on Sunday after chipping in with 17 goals and 11 assists to aid Leicester’s title charge, said he only began considering the possibility of Leicester winning the league in January. “I speak a lot with (midfielder) N’golo Kante and maybe January we started to talk about the league. We just said: ‘Imagine if...’,” he added.
“But that was only for about 30 seconds and then we would say: ‘No, let’s stay focused and let’s see.’ It was still a long way to go. Maybe 15 games to go. Nowadays we are like: ‘It’s not done yet because Tottenham are very close to us.’”
