Harry Kane won the Ballon d'Or on Monday night and partied at an exclusive Soho nightclub with friends and family as the Bayern Munich and England star further etched his name into the record books

Harry Kane partied long into the night at one of London's swankiest nightclubs after winning the Ballon d'Or in the capital - becoming the first Englishman to win the award in a quarter of a century.

The Bayern Munich ace enjoyed the best season of his career to date. He claimed another Bundesliga title and German Cup, but fell at the semi-final hurdle in the Champions League and with England at the World Cup. He scored 61 times for the Bavarians.

After his historic moment Kane headed to Cirque Le Soir in Soho to party with family and friends. The Bayern star was greeted by a crowd full of champagne sparklers, and raised his shot glass in appreciation.

His wife, Kate, and brother, Charlie, were with him at the Ballon d'Or ceremony and were by his side as the night went on as they partied on. Kane had security alongside him when he eventually left the shindig in the early hours of the morning.

A host of Kane's former Tottenham teammates also showed up to celebrate his historic moment. The likes of Eric Dier, Ben Davies and Matt Doherty could be seen on the dancefloor at the club.

Kane's backing was clear to see with Bayern having a host of their players and staff travel with him to London, supporting his efforts to win the Ballon d'Or. By scooping the award he became the German club's first winner since Karl-Heinz Rummenigge back in 1981.

The England forward said during his acceptance speech: “Thank you to everyone who voted for me. I can imagine it was really tough this year, [with] some of the incredible players I was up against – some of my team-mates [and] world class players in the room tonight.

“Congratulations to all the winners, all the nominees, an impressive showing of what hard work and determination can achieve, so well done. My Bayern Munich team-mates – I’ve got a few here tonight, without you it wouldn’t have been possible. The way you guys have pushed me, the way we compete, against Upa [Dayot Upamecano] in training every week, it just makes me want to improve.

“Vincent [Kompany], I know he’s at home, still in the hospital so wishing him very well. Hope this has given you a bit of energy and all the staff, the way we train, the way you push us you’re a credit to yourself."

Kane also recognised his former club Tottenham, where he spent his entire career before leaving for Germany. He added: “I wanna say thank you to Tottenham Hotspur as well. I wouldn’t be where I am today without Tottenham for sure. I was here from 11-years-old.

“All the guidance, all the coaches. You allow me to live my dream so, for sure, without all those moments together, all the ups and downs along the way from that journey has led me to that journey here today so just want to say thank you to Tottenham Hotspur.

“To all the fans – Bayern Munich fans, England fans, Spurs fans – and all my fans around the world, a lot of you in this room tonight, the support you give me in the stadiums, around the place, wherever it may be, on social media, I appreciate it all."
