London – England captain Harry Kane said breaking the Three Lions’ appearance record in Thursday’s Nations League clash with Croatia will represent a “testament to all the dedication” that has gone into his career.
When Kane leads England out at Wembley to earn his 126th cap, he will surpass the previous record held by former goalkeeper Peter Shilton since 1990.
It will be the latest landmark in an incredible 12 months for the Bayern Munich striker, who in October became the first English player in 25 years to win the Ballon d’Or.
