Harry Kane is close to setting a new record in English football history. The Bayern Munich striker could become the footballer with the most appearances for the England national team if he features in today’s match against Croatia, which will be played at the legendary Wembley Stadium.
At 33, the captain of the “Three Lions” is expected to make his 126th appearance for the national team, surpassing the legend Peter Shilton, who ended his international career with 125 appearances.
This record would be another major achievement for Kane, who for years has been one of the key figures in English football. Besides the number of matches, the striker also holds another impressive statistic: he is the all-time top scorer in the national team’s history, with 91 goals in 125 matches.
However, Kane knows the appearance record could be under threat in the future. Two of the players who could approach it are Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham, who have already made 80 appearances each for England. For the English captain, the match against Croatia at Wembley could be another historic night.
