Harry Kane to Break 36-Year Record in England vs. Croatia
Kane will move past Peter Shilton's 125 England appearances and take his tally to 126, adding another milestone to his international career.
On Thursday, Harry Kane became England's most-capped player, earning his 126th appearance during the match against Croatia at Wembley Stadium.
Rejected by Arsenal and Watford academies as a youth, Kane took the long road through lower-league football, playing for Leyton Orient, Millwall, Norwich City, and Leicester City before his breakthrough.
Kane secured a 2-1 victory over Croatia by scoring his 92nd England goal from the penalty spot, clinching England's spot in the Nations League quarter-finals.
Since winning the Ballon d'Or, the Bayern Munich striker has set clear targets: scoring 100 England goals and winning the Champions League with his club.
Debates regarding whether Kane is England's greatest player have intensified as manager Thomas Tuchel positions his squad around the reigning Ballon d'Or winner.
Three cheers for Harry Kane: The newly selected world footballer replaces Peter Shilton as an English record national player, meets and stands with England in the quarterfinals of the Nations League.
