Harry Kane eyeing 100 England goals ahead of milestone cap

Harry Kane has set his sights on notching 100 international goals as he prepares to become just the 10th male England player to reach a century of caps against Finland on Tuesday.After winning his 99th cap in a routine 2-0 win over the Republic of Ireland at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday, Kane will lead England out at Wembley as they look to make it two Nations League wins from two against the Finns.The 31-year-old's tally currently stands at 66 since netting on his debut as a substitute against Lithuania in 2015, while he has been the country’s all-time leading goalscorer since overtaking Wayne Rooney’s previous record of 53 in March last year.Despite England reaching the final of Euro 2024 during the summer, the Bayern Munich striker was criticised for his overall play as he failed to find the kind of form that saw him score 44 times in his debut season with the Bundesliga side.Asked whether he would be following up his landmark appearance by targeting a century of goals for his country, he said: "Yeah.

In those years I’ve done around 15, 16, 17 caps a year whereas a normal year would be 10."The goals were similar. I felt I was on 30 goals and then I went to 50 and then 60.

It is definitely there and definitely possible. I feel like I am in a good place and these are good targets to try to reach."Some people may see them as unrealistic but I would rather go for something unrealistic and not quite make it rather than be comfortable just saying I will be happy with 70 or 80 goals."Kane averaged almost a goal a game for Bayern last season, while his England
