At the peak of his career, Harry Kane has solidified his status as one of football’s most consistent and prolific forwards. The 32-year-old holds England’s all-time scoring record with 74 goals in 109 appearances and is Tottenham Hotspur’s top scorer with 280 goals in 435 games before his £86.4m move to Bayern Munich in 2023.
