Harry Kane set to make England history as Thomas Tuchel confirms Croatia start
Harry Kane is set to become England’s most-capped men’s international when he features against Croatia in Thursday’s UEFA Nations League encounter at Wembley.
As reported by Football360, the England captain will make his 126th appearance, moving ahead of former goalkeeper Peter Shilton, who previously held the record with 125 caps. The 33-year-old is already England’s all-time leading goalscorer with 91 goals and is targeting the historic 100-goal milestone.
He has also scored 14 times at the World Cup, making him the country’s highest scorer in the competition. Kane credited his long-term work with Canadian specialist Dr Alejandro Elorriaga Claraco for helping him overcome persistent injury problems and maintain his fitness.
“I think I maybe missed 10-15 games in the last seven years and the previous seven years was more 60-70 games,” he said. Thomas Tuchel confirmed Kane would start against Croatia as England prepare to celebrate his remarkable achievement.
