Kane eyes 'ten more years' after equalling England caps record
Post
๐ฐ Harry Kane says he wants to see where his ceiling is 'in 10 years or so', after matching England's appearance record.
๐ Key points
๐ฃ๏ธ Kane said 'I'm not going to stop', vowing to play on for a long time.
โณ 'Maybe in 10 years or so, we'll see where that ceiling is at.'
๐ช He said he had his best season at 32 and feels even better now.
๐ค Two goals v Czechia took him level with Shilton on 125 caps.
๐
Playing Croatia on 12 November would make the record his alone.
๐ What happened
โฝ Kane started England's Nations League game against Czechia at Wembley on 6 October and scored in the 40th and 57th minutes. England won 3-0, and Kane drew level with Peter Shilton on a record 125 England caps.
๐ฃ๏ธ Speaking to ITV after the game, Kane said: 'I'm not going to stop. I'm going to keep pushing and see where it takes me.' He added: 'Maybe in 10 years or so, we'll see where that ceiling is at.'
๐ช He stressed: 'I've just come back off my best season ever at 32 years old and right now I feel in an even better place.' On reaching 100 international goals, he said that the more you think about 100, the harder it can be to achieve.
๐งค Shilton, who had held the record since the 1990 World Cup, congratulated him on X, saying he was sure Kane would beat it in November and might set a record that will never be beaten.
๐ By the numbers
โข England caps: 125 (level with Shilton)
โข England goals: 91
โข Third on the list, Wayne Rooney: 120 caps
โข Kane's age: 33
๐ญ Why it matters
At 33, Kane is still leading the line for both Bayern and England. Talking openly about 'ten years' also puts the spotlight on his contract talks with Bayern; his current deal runs until summer 2027.
England host Croatia on 12 November, and if Kane plays he will become England's most-capped player outright with 126.
