00:04England's most prolific goalscorer Tottenham Hotspur's most potent striker
00:13a record breaker in the Bundesliga a World Cup golden boot winner
00:21for the entirety of his extraordinary career Harry Kane has found the back of the net more
00:28frequently than just about any Englishman in the country's long history
00:34has total attributes as a top top to strike right left header dropping quality to play assists score
00:42goal be in the box score goals arriving so the exceptional striker has shown in many many years
00:51so on top of that Kane has led his country with distinction and during the 2026 World Cup will
00:59set a new mark for caps as captain of the three lions surpassing legendary figures Bobby Moore and Billy
01:07Wright and a skipper he has helped forge a new culture for the England team one that prioritizes
01:15collectivism over individual brilliance leading them to consecutive European Championship Finals
01:22and the knockout stages of the past two World Cups I like to lead by example I think that's a
01:29big trait
01:29of mine which yeah send good examples for the players around me for the staff for the young
01:36players coming through despite such individual brilliance Kane had to wait until he was 31 and
01:44a scorer of over 400 professional goals before he lifted his first major trophy the 2024-25 Bundesliga
01:53title with Bayern Munich yeah this one feels special I think obviously I've won this one before and a few
02:00golden boots in my career but to do it when we win the championship is that more meaningful and
02:05it's been another good season I've enjoyed every moment of it there's been some great moments and
02:11um yeah it was nice to finish with a with a win today and obviously to to score in the
02:15final game as
02:16well Kane was a natural finisher from an early age and since breaking through at the highest level in
02:222014 he has reached double figures for league goals every season the first of many individual accolades
02:31arrived with the 2015 pfa young player of the year award since 2017 Kane has scored at least five goals
02:41every calendar year for England hiring the covert disrupted 2020 campaign it sounds obvious that he
02:50wants to be one of the best players in the world but actually not every player is committed to being
02:54that
02:55not every player has that belief but also is prepared to commit themselves in training in their lifestyle and
03:00everything and he is ordinarily goal scoring feats like this would be accompanied by mountains of
03:07silverware but Kane's commitment to Tottenham and Spurs is reluctant to cash in on their star asset
03:14meant he was rarely in the hunt for honors in England despite winning the golden boot three times
03:19and firing his side to the 2019 Champions League final
03:26a transfer to one of the world's mega clubs was inevitable at some point and that arrived in 2023
03:33with a move to German giant Bayern Munich but even then Kane had the misfortune to time his arrival
03:40in Bavaria with Bayer Leverkusen's freak campaign under Xabi Alonso delaying his trophy celebrations a
03:47season longer than anticipated. I think FC Bayern Munich are one of the biggest clubs in the world and I've
03:54always said throughout my career I want to keep improving and keep pushing myself to be the very
03:59best and I felt like it was the right step in my career to really push myself and test myself
04:05on the
04:05highest level so that's why I'm here and I look forward to that challenge. The Londoner's composure in
04:12front of goal height and predatory instincts mark him out as a quintessential number nine but his all-round
04:19game is far more technical as he has matured he has spent more time dropping into deeper positions and
04:26linking play. As England's tactics have evolved from the coaching of Gareth Southgate to Thomas Tuchel
04:33Kane's ability to take part in build-up play and create space for younger direct forwards around him
04:39has become a core aspect of his team's preferred route to goal. This country probably don't appreciate
04:46how good he is from a footballer point of view he's incredible this country should appreciate we've got a
04:53real special talent. Kane turns 33 not long after the 2026 World Cup final he will not get many more
05:01chances to succeed with England the country he has served as brilliantly as anyone that has gone before
05:07him. A lot of great teams out there but we're growing in confidence you know with the experiences
05:12that we've had in the other major tournaments but for sure we still got some improving to do some
05:16learning to do. After a lifetime of finding the back of the net for club and country Harry Kane is
05:23starting to get into the habit of lifting trophies the big one with England would cap the finest career
05:29in three lions history.
