Harry Kane cruises to Premier League Striker of the Season award

Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane has picked up more than half of the votes to be named the Premier League Striker of the Season in the annual Sports Mole Reader Awards.

The England captain topped both the goalscoring and assist charts despite an underwhelming campaign for his Tottenham team, who only finished in seventh place.

Kane won his third Golden Boot by finding the back of the net 23 times, while his 14 assists ensured a career-best tally of 37 goal returns in a single Premier League campaign.

The forward, who reportedly wants to leave Spurs this summer, earned 56% of the votes in the Striker of the Season category - the biggest winning margin for any of the awards.

Leeds United's Patrick Bamford finished as runner-up with 11.4% of the votes, while Liverpool's Mohamed Salah was third with 9.1%.
