With Harry Kane poised to match Peter Shilton's England appearance record, the talented forward currently boasts 124 international appearances. The England captain may etch his name into history as the sole record holder when he represents his nation in a match against Croatia on November 12, securing his 126th cap. Currently, Kane proudly holds the title of England's all-time leading goalscorer, tallying an impressive 89 goals.
This milestone was achieved during a Euro 2024 qualifying victory over Italy in March 2024, where he surpassed Wayne Rooney's previous record of 53 goals.
Throughout his international career, Kane has made 21 goals in 36 appearances across six competitions. His journey started in March 2015 against Lithuania, where he scored a remarkable 79 seconds after coming off the bench. Since being appointed captain in 2018, he has led the team in every major tournament. To date, Kane has made 87 starts as captain, just three behind the joint record held by Billy Wright and Bobby Moore.
As Kane inches closer to the men's record, Fara Williams stands as the overall record holder with an impressive 172 caps for the England women's national team.
