Career
Kane made his debut for St Johnstone against Kilmarnock on 9 November 2013.[1] In January 2014, Kane signed for Scottish Championship club Dumbarton on a one-month loan deal,[2] scoring on his debut as the Sons defeated Greenock Morton 2–0 on 4 January 2014.[3] On 31 January 2014, his loan was extended until the end of that season.[4] On 29 August 2014, Kane returned to Dumbarton on loan once again, agreeing a deal until January 2015.[5] Kane scored the winner on his second debut for the Sons versus Livingston.[6] On 24 May 2015, Kane scored his first ever goal for St Johnstone, the winner in a 1–0 win over Aberdeen which secured a fourth-placed finish for the Perth club.[7]
On 10 August 2017, Kane along with his teammate Jason Kerr joined Scottish Championship club Queen of the South on loan until 31 January 2018.[8] On 14 January 2018, Kane was recalled to the Perth club when his loan spell in Dumfries with the Doonhamers ended.[9] On 29 January 2018, Kane scored a hat-trick in a 4–0 away win versus Albion Rovers in the Scottish Cup fourth round at Cliftonhill.[10]
Kane was one of three St Johnstone players to sign a short term six-month contract extension in May 2020, as the club formulated plans amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.[11] He was a regular player as St Johnstone won both cup competitions during the 2020–21 season.[12]
He missed most of the 2022–23 season due to injury, but made a comeback near the end of the season and signed a new one-year contract with St Johnstone in June 2023.[13]
He moved on loan to Dunfermline Athletic in February 2024.[14]
