A girl with Down syndrome has received an invitation from Harry Kane to be a Tottenham mascot after a video of her dancing was targeted by online trolls.

Ella Markham, 16, was videoed by her father dancing during Spurs’ 1-0 home loss to West Ham on Saturday.

It was her first visit to the new Tottenham stadium and her dad Neil, a 43-year-old sales director from Banbury, was excited to see how she would react to the live musicians the club have organised on the concourse.

“I knew she would enjoy that, she loves live music,” Neil told the Press Association. “On her iPad she’s singing and dancing all the time.”
