Harry Kane has made history by becoming England’s most-capped men’s player after a 2-1 victory over Croatia. The Bayern Munich striker has also revealed his ambition to reach the incredible 100-goal milestone achieved by Messi and Ronaldo.

Harry Kane Makes History and Sets His Sights on Messi and Ronaldo’s 100-Goal Milestone

Harry Kane has made history with England after breaking a long-standing national record, while also setting his sights on an incredible achievement previously reached by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

The Bayern Munich superstar enjoyed a memorable night at Wembley on November 12 as England defeated Croatia 2-1 in the UEFA Nations League.

And the 2026 Ballon d’Or winner now has another major target in mind.

Harry Kane breaks historic England record

Kane officially became the most-capped player in England men’s national team history after making his 126th international appearance.

The 33-year-old surpassed legendary goalkeeper Peter Shilton, whose record of 125 appearances had stood for 36 years.

The England captain celebrated the achievement in perfect fashion by scoring the winning goal against Croatia.

After Morgan Rogers opened the scoring and Petar Sucic equalised, Kane converted a penalty in the 64th minute to secure a 2-1 victory.

The result also confirmed England’s place in the UEFA Nations League quarter-finals.

Kane targets Messi and Ronaldo’s incredible milestone

Following his record-breaking performance, Kane revealed that he wants to reach 100 international goals.

The striker has now scored 92 goals for England, meaning he needs just eight more to achieve the historic milestone.

When asked about reaching 100 goals, Kane confidently replied:

“It’s achievable for sure.”

Only three male footballers have reached the 100-goal mark for their national teams: Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Iranian legend Ali Daei.

If Kane achieves his target, he will become the first English player to join this exclusive group.

Another special moment for the Ballon d’Or winner

Kane’s latest achievement comes just weeks after he won the 2026 Ballon d’Or, becoming the first English player to receive the award since Michael Owen in 2001.

Before the Croatia match, Peter Shilton, Prince William and Luka Modric honoured the England captain during a special ceremony at Wembley.

England manager Thomas Tuchel also praised Kane’s leadership and importance to the team.

With 126 international appearances, 92 goals and another major target ahead, Kane continues to build one of the greatest careers in English football history.

Now, the question is whether he can reach 100 goals and join Ronaldo and Messi in one of football’s most exclusive groups.
