England Captain, Harry Kane has bought the sponsorship for Leyton Orient 2020/21 shirts. The Tottenham striker has used this opportunity to put three worthy causes on the front of each strip.

“I was born and brought up only at a couple of miles from Orient’s stadium and I’m really happy to have the opportunity to give back to the club that gave me my first professional start,” Kane told the BBC.

On the home-strip will be a message thanking the healthcare heroes that have been on the frontline against COVID-19. The away and the third strip will feature the logos of, Haven House Children’s Hospice and Mental health charity Mind, respectively.

The deal has been approved by the Premier League, English Football League, and Football Association.

 Kane added, “This also gives me a platform to be able to say a big thank you to the many frontline heroes and charities out there who provide care and support during these challenging times.”
