In his acceptance speech, Kane paid homage to Spurs, saying: “First of all, I am almost speechless. Lucky I have this list. It being in London is extra special and felt like a good omen. Thanks to those who voted for me, as it would have been tough this year. Congratulations to all the nominees and winners tonight.“Thanks to my teammates who are here tonight. It is an honour to play for Bayern Munich and represent you. I want to say thank you to Tottenham Hotspur as well. I would not be where I am today without Tottenham. You allowed me to live my dream.“I want to give a shout-out to some of my coaches down the years. You all played important roles at different stages of my career. When you surround yourself with the best people, you become a better person and player.“Thank you to my brother Charlie and my mum and dad for all the time and sacrifices you have made for me. To my kids, you are the reason I do this. I cannot wait to see you, and I want to set a good example for you. I love you very much. To my wife Katie, my best friend, we have been through ups and downs. You are my biggest supporter. You always want the best for me and sacrifice yourself to help me achieve my dreams.”Photo by Stefan Matzke – sampics/Getty ImagesTottenham fans honour Harry Kane after Ballon d’Or triumphThe week for Tottenham fans became even better as they watched their north London rivals Arsenal crash out of the Carabao Cup to League Two side Fleetwood, just days after Kane’s crowning moment.Soon after, another London rival, Chelsea, were also eliminated from the Carabao Cup, adding to the delight of Spurs supporters.This weekend, Tottenham fans then witnessed their own team secure a third successive victory when they beat Crystal Palace 2-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, capping a remarkable week.During the clash against Palace, the Spurs support made sure to pay tribute to their academy graduate Harry Kane following his recent Ballon d’Or win.A proud Tottenham crowd belted out, “He’s one of our own, Harry Kane, he’s one of our own”, in the 28th minute as Spurs fans celebrated a week in which academy graduate Kane claimed the Ballon d’Or in London."He's one of our own, Harry Kane, he's one of our own" sing #THFC fans in the 28th minute in a week where Spurs academy graduate Kane claimed the Ballon d'Or in London.— George Sessions (@GeorgeSessions) October 31, 2026Spurs fans hope for more Ballon d’Or gloryWith Kane’s latest triumph, Tottenham now have two Ballon d’Or winners who played for the club before winning the award, with Luka Modric being the first.This is something Spurs fans will certainly hope to see more of, although ideally they will want future winners to lift the award while still playing in N17 rather than after moving elsewhere.The future certainly looks bright, though, with Tottenham fans also watching academy star Luca Williams-Barnett impress from the bench on his Premier League debut.The youngster will surely be hoping to draw inspiration from Kane, while Spurs supporters will be hoping he develops into one of the best players in the world and helps bring plenty of trophies to the club.READ MORE: ‘Big, big talent’ – Roberto De Zerbi reviews Luca Williams-Barnett’s debut at TottenhamThe post Tottenham fans pay touching tribute to Harry Kane during 2-0 Crystal Palace win appeared first on Spurs Web.
