HARRY KANE targets 100 England goals ahead of reaching a century of caps.
The Three Lions skipper will receive a special golden cap for making 100 appearances in tonight’s Nations League clash against Finland.
Kane, 31, is England’s all-time top scorer with 66 goals but wants an even more extraordinary record.
Asked about getting many international goals, the Bayern Munich striker replied: “It is possible. I am in a good place and this is a good target to try to reach.
“Some may see it as unrealistic but I would rather go for it and not quite make it than be comfortable saying, ‘I will be happy with 70 or 80 goals’.”
Kane, who trained in golden boots yesterday, will join Peter Shilton, Wayne Rooney, David Beckham, Steven Gerrard, Bobby Moore, Ashley Cole, Bobby Charlton, Frank Lampard, and Billy Wright in the England Centurion club.
The ex-Tottenham star added: “Getting 100 caps has come around so quickly, especially in the last few years when playing three major tournaments in a short time.
“In those years I’ve earned around 15, 16, 17 caps a year.
“It is similar to the goals. I was on 30 goals and then, bam, I went to 50 and then 60.”
So on 66 goals from his first 99 senior England games, Kane revealed to SunSport's CHARLIE WYETT some of his most special Three Lions strikes...
