Harry Kane Became Sponsor of His Former Club

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Many soccer players do social activities during the corona virus pandemic. Likewise Harry Kane, he helped his former club by becoming the main sponsor.

Kane’s former club is Leyton Orient which now plays in League Two or the equivalent of the fourth division in the English football arena. Then, what was Kane’s agreement with Leyton Orient?

Kane, who signed a collaboration for a year alias during the 2020/2021 season, has the right to put any logo or picture on the chest of the Leyton Orient jersey. But, Kane didn’t do that.

In the unnamed collaboration, Kane chose to thank the medical workers who fought hard in the fight against COVID-19. For the home jersey, there is an inscription ‘for the frontline heroes’, then ‘Haven House Children’s Hospice’ on the away jersey.

While for the third jersey, Kane chose the words ‘the mental charity mind’. For Kane, this is the best thing that can be done to take care in the middle of a pandemic while helping his former club.

“I was born and raised in the area near the stadium. I really could have the opportunity to repay the services of the club that has given me the opportunity to make a professional debut,” Kane said as quoted by ESPN.

“In addition, I also have a way to say thank you as much as possible to the medical staff and also the charity which has been very helpful in difficult times like this,” he continued.

Kane played for Leyton Orient in 2011 and scored his first professional goal at the club. At that time Kane, who was only 17 years old, was loaned out by Tottenham Hotspur. In total there were 17 appearances and five goals made.
