We wouldn’t say no that’s for sure.

Harry Kane was among the goals again for Tottenham today as they overcame West Brom 3-0 in the Premier League. The striker has been in fantastic form for the Londoners, and today scored his 19th and 20th goals of the season to ensure of the win.

He could, if he wanted, declare for the Republic of Ireland as his father is from Galway. However, he has previously said that he would prefer to try and break into the England squad instead. Boo-urns

Knowing Roy Hodgson however he may have to wait to get his chance, and if Martin or Roy could sweet talk him into wearing the green of the Republic Of Ireland it would be a major coup.

However ‘Spurs boss Mauricio Pochetinno doesn’t think it’s a runner judging by his reaction to a question posed by and Irish journalist at his post-match press conference today.

The Argentine was asked his thoughts on Kane playing for Ireland and it made him burst into laughter.
