Harry Kane targets a century of goals for England

Harry Kane targets a century of goals for England

Harry Kane believes he can score 100 goals for England.

The Three Lions skipper is set to win his 100th cap in the Nations League clash against Finland on Tuesday (10.09.24) and hopes to reach three figures in terms of goals to go with his century of appearances.

Kane, who has scored 66 goals in 99 games for his country, told reporters: "It’s possible, it’s there.

"What is it, 34 goals [to reach the total]? I mean, it is strange, I have touched on it a bit, 100 caps have come round so quickly, especially the last few years playing three major tournaments in such a short space of time.

"In those years I’ve done around 15, 16, 17 caps a year whereas a normal year would be 10. The goals were similar. I felt I was on 30 goals and then, bam, I went to 50 and 60. It is definitely there and definitely possible. I feel like I am in a good place and these are good targets to try to reach.

"Some people may see them as unrealistic but I would rather go for something unrealistic and not quite make it rather than be comfortable just saying I will be happy with 70 or 80 goals."

The Bayern Munich player explained how he is taking inspiration from Cristiano Ronaldo - who has notched 132 goals for Portugal and is still making a difference for his country at the age of 39.

Kane said: "At 31, I am in a good place both mentally and physically and some of the players ahead of me, like Ronaldo, have helped prove to me I can be at this level for a long time."
