Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane is undoubtedly one of the greatest strikers in Premier League history.
Since making his debut in a 2-1 Tottenham loss to Newcastle on August 18, 2012, Kane has scored 209 goals in the Premier League and won the golden boot three times.
The England captain now has his eyes set on breaking the all-time leading goal-scorer in the Premier League, a record currently held by Alan Shearer who scored 260 Premier League goals between the 90s and mid-2000s.
Kane only has to score 52 goals to break that record and set his own. During an interview with Sky Sports, the 29-year-old was asked whether he would love to achieve that amazing feat and your guess is as good as ours.
“For sure it is something I want to do. I think whenever you get close to these types of records all it does is drive you to try and achieve them,” Kane replied.
“But bit by bit, I like to just focus on season by season and if I can score a few and help the team win this season, in a couple of seasons we’ll see where I’m at and how close I am. But now I am this close to it, it is something I’d love to achieve.”
Kane is currently the record holder for the most goals scored in the England men’s national team with 55 goals in 82 caps but some fans don’t rank him among the best mostly because of his lack of silverware to show for his goals.
When asked if he feels like he is underappreciated by fans, Kane said that he appreciates all the support he gets and that he expects to get some hate because it is part and parcel of the game.
“I’m not too sure, that’s a difficult question for me to answer that’s obviously I think for other people to debate. I’m someone who appreciates all the support I have even sometimes when I don’t get support or get hate from other fans or whatever it is that’s part and parcel of the game.”
Kane has made 432 appearances for Tottenham and scored 276 goals in all competitions but his future at the club has become increasingly uncertain, with reports of him leaving at the end of this season circulating in the media.
