Kane relishing chance to become England’s most-capped player

Harry Kane is on the brink of matching Peter Shilton's record as England's most-capped player, just four appearances away. The Three Lions' all-time leading goal scorer admits he didn't initially consider this milestone while growing up. Kane, England's top goalscorer, is currently one of 10 players to have reached a century of caps for the national side.

In contrast, Cristiano Ronaldo has represented Portugal 233 times, while Lionel Messi (Argentina) and Luka Modric (Croatia) have surpassed 200 caps each. Kane's former Tottenham teammates Christian Eriksen, Jan Vertonghen, and Ivan Perisic have also accrued over 150 international appearances. Kane wonders why England players haven't reached higher numbers, speculating on cultural, mental, or external pressures.

Despite his impressive 85 international goals, Kane still lacks a major tournament victory for England. A Euro in two years could be his final chance, with Saturday's match against reigning champions Spain at Wembley seen as an opportunity to set a benchmark. Kane believes beating strong teams like Spain and Croatia is crucial to reaching the top and potentially breaking Shilton's record.
