Not only has he led his club team to two Bundesliga titles, a DFB-Pokal, and a Franz Beckenbauer Supercup, but he has also captained his country to the final of Euro 2024, and the semifinals of the 2026 World Cup.

In England’s most recent game, a 2-1 win over Norway in the World Cup quarterfinals, Kane hit another milestone. According to @iMiaSanMia, of the time of writing, he is officially England’s most capped outfield player along with Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney. Both have 120 caps for the Three Lions.

England’s all-time appearance maker is former goalkeeper Peter Shilton, who has 125 caps. However, considering Kane is well in his prime, it seems like only a matter of time before he breaks that record has well. Having reached the semifinals, Kane is guaranteed two more matches at this World Cup – the semifinal against Argentina, and a possible final or third place match depending on the former’s result.
