Currently participating in the International Champions Cup, the lads are well and truly back to business. Spurs players are as thrilled to be back on the pitch as supporters are to be watching their beloved team, and the Twittersphere reflects the pervading excitement.

Off the pitch and behind the scenes
The club is making the most of their time in the US, their schedule as chockfull with off-field events as it is with on-field duties. From public appearances, to making young fans’ dreams come true while visiting Nike Town USA, players and staff work tirelessly to promote the club’s global brand.
This section is capped off with a look at the Cornhole Challenge, a traditional game that has been played in the US for generations. Spurs’ four keepers partake and it’s something you won’t want to miss.

Harry Kane kicks a 50-yard field goal with ease
Unsurprisingly, Harry Kane can kick field goals with the best of them. Spurs’ talisman knocked a 50-yard field goal with consummate ease and arrow-like precision. By the look of this kick, Kane would walk on to any NFL team if he ever decided to change careers. That, however, is less likely than Spurs and Arsenal supporters getting together for a friendly kick around.
50 yard field goal ✅
