Tottenham news: Harry Kane's incredible Arsenal record as Spurs boost top four hopes

Tottenham Hotspur forward Harry Kane now has 13 goals in 16 games against north London rivals Arsenal.

The England captain already held the impressive record for most goals in the history of the derby but he stretched that even further with his double on Thursday night. Kane converted a penalty in the 22nd minute before stooping to double his side's lead with a header 15 minutes later as he was crowned the king of north London.

Arsenal had Rob Holding sent off in the first-half before Son Heung-min confirmed the win with a smart finish in the second half. And it comes as Spurs have been offered five players in the summer transfer window.
